I remember the WK posting before the super limited GC. The only thing I would say to that, based on your posting, is that it may be a tad bit more difficult to flip when you're done with it.

I parked a lifted Jeep Liberty today...the original one...was kinda neat...might have had 31's on it, but looked really well done. Probably be great on the beach...wonder what gas mileage is like.

thing was SO dope and it got between 15-17 mpg's.... not terrible.

im sure a bank would love to give me one. being i dont have any big bills under my name, but i pay em. so it looks like i keep every bit of it in the banks eyes. and i have extra money, if i dont buy crap for the exploder with it.
i just dont like the idea of taking 5 years to pay it off and risk loosing it along the way

Have you considered just the plain o'l TSL? If you have enough room for the 35, you may be able to run the 36" TSL or what about the Q78 (a 35.5") TSL? With only being driven 10 or so miles on the road, they'd be great for you.
Loved my boggers and had good mileage out of them before I sold them. I always checked air pressure ( I run lower psi on my tires so I don't wear the middles out), rotated them every oil change and didn't drive like I was in a sports car. Loved them on everything on the trails, except rocks. I'd run them again but I know there are better tires for all around 4wheelin and I am more into rocks now then mud. Tired of fixing everything mud does to a vehicle and when I drained my tcase and chocolate milk came out that was the final straw. Now anything mud is, slow and avoided if possible. I'm not talking like 2ft deep mud holes, more along the lines of this stupid shit
