I've sold a couple sets and they look great....dunno about how they perform but a couple friends have them on their jeeps and they seem happy.

I'd have to recommend a bilstein leveling kit and 325/60/18 Dick cepek FC-II's myself!



I've run BFG A/Ts and the Dick cepeks on my trucks, great all terrain all season tires. I don't have experience with the pro comps but they used to have poor life and sketchy traction. I've heard they picked up their game tho recently.

13" wide tire on a stock rim is pushing it IMO, i assume you have stockers that is

all you need for the most part is a deep socket 30mm and a 1 1/16" and a bar, rest you should have in a regular socket set, autozone will have the socket to rent or at least mine did, oh yea a jack and jackstands
