yes the rubi come with 32's they are bfg mt but not ones you can buy off the shelves,  they are actually the baja race pattern and if they do well on the rubis they may use them as the new mud terrains.

They're using the Baja Terrain?  Those are supposed to be extra thick compared to the regulars and the Moabs are the soft compounds.  This doesn't really make much since because they used E Load tires when they should have used C Load tires on the TJ Rubicons.  It doesn't make sense why they're using such a heavy tire on there.  Probably weighs as much as the 35 or even 37 radials.

the tj with the mtr were wearing out in 20k and that was causing problems with the people who buy the jeep for just a road vehicle so they gave up on mtr all together and are under full contract with bfg.  the power wagons started it last year with bfg at's and now the wranglers are following with the "new" bfg mt.  i think it is funny that they say bfg mt right on the side but if you order new bfg mt they look like the old mt ka they have had for years.  i think this pattern is taking over now.  i have never seen then for sale yet but saw then on the bfg sponsered baja trucks as a prototype tire.  it looks just like the old mt's but the center lugs kinda hook toward each other so they kinda have the bfg mt look but with a swaper twist in the middle. i'll try to find a picture if I can.  i know they were in peterson's or jp about 3 months ago but i can't remeber which.  either way they have a pretty mean stance to them.

I wonder if they took their old Baja T/A and revamped it to make it more street worthy.  I'm sure they were never high sellers.  Neither were the Moab's.  A pict would be great.

Hmm well, I used to not like 4dr sedans.  Thinking they don't look as cool as a coupe.  But now I really like them now  They are very practical and they don't look that bad.  It's always a PITA to get passengers into the rear seat of a 2dr.  It's a hassle to pass lift the seat every time someone wants in or out.  Or if you need to get something from the back.  I guess this comes with age since I never minded it before.

I still would love to have one of these though.  I like the size.  Too bad they axed that idea and make the Liberty instead.  I guess the JK unlimited takes some keys from it though.

I just got off the phone with Dan at Burnsville Off Road...   He had like 5 Jeep JK's already.   He started to give me the low down on a few...

silver 4 door 6.1 Hemi, the first and only one with that engine at SEMA.  Due to time restraints, seems like no-one could get it in and running before the show.

He has a white 2 door with a 5.7 hemi...  All with at least 37-38's on all...

Pretty impressive!!!
