VIDEO : The masses have spoken and so... We Bought New Shoes for Pippi

[wayoflife]

The masses have spoken and we have listened! After Pippi's last run out on the rocks, Cindy and I decided that it was finally time to buy her a new set of tires. But then came the real question of, what to get her? Rubicon take offs? A new set of mud terrains like we always do? Or, maybe something a bit more street friendly like a set of all terrains? In this video, you'll get to see what we ultimately decided to buy and why.

It’s always cool to see how big of a difference a simple mod transforms the look of a Jeep

33s look pretty damn good on there with no lift. You've seriously had that Jeep a year already?

 

[AZVAJKU]

Looks great!!

 

[TrailHunter]

Perfect! The 33's look great on a 2 Door.

Yup, Pippi looks tuff in her new Converse Chuck Taylor's.

I bet there's some Rubicon fender flares sitting somewhere in that garage too.........

Looks great
Curious what happened to Jet’s OEM wheels and how did you only end up with the Gladiator rims?

It really is. But then, of all the mods to do, I think tires make the biggest difference.

It's hard to believe but yeah, just shy of a year. Crazy!

Looks great!!

Thank you

I think so too. Kinda like 35's on a 4-door.

LOL - love it and while we do have Rubicon fenders in the garage, they're white

So, we sold JET's wheels and tires a long time ago. The Gladiator tires, we gave to our son. He already had wheels and so we kept them and really, I'm glad we did as we like them a lot.

How is it to drive on 33s with the 6spd? Since I almost never get over 60mph except for road trips, my 6spd JL Rubi is essentially a 4spd.

You know, so far, it doesn't feel a whole lot different if at all.

Looks great like that. Needs some window tint and color matched fenders now. You complied with my last request for tires so I expect this completed by next Sunday.

 

[Mike Pierson]

Mentioned on the video, but looks really good and, would be fun to see her on that same same trail with the new shoes. Also, people seem to be really stoked on this “stock build” series; think you’ll have some serious views on these.

 

[Renegade Jeepster]

I love how you are going with the "stock" approach on the Pippy build.... I am very interested on what's going to be next... Rubicon Fender flares?

 

[jeeeep]

Wheels and tires can really change the look, looks great.

I agree with OverlanderJK, window tint

Love the new set up. The ridge grap is one of my favorite tires to date. Curious to what fenders you are gonna do. OEM rubicon is what I’m thinking but the rugged ridge fenders look good as well.

 

[benatc1]

Looks great, I do love those Ridge grapplers. Those tires totally change they look for the better!

Scuff em up, spray on some bedliner, and hike her skirts up.

 

[Bullwinckle]

Pippi is looking great with the new tires! Looking forward to see what you do next.

I was waiting for you to pull out the tape measure but you let me down…

 

[Critter79]

Great looking tires! Does discount tire offer a pro rated amount for the used tires? Thought they would, but not sure.
