Busted my back loading 5 tyres and 5 wheels to get assembled and balanced. Reloaded them, was taking them out of the car at home when a balance weight (stuck on style) fell off...seems cleaning the inside of the wheel FIRST had never occured to this bloke....so took everything back to have them clean the wheels and re-do the weights. Fitted them up to the car.
But of course, par for the course with this car...the previous owners had lost the factory lock nut key for the spare....so out with a cutting disc, mask up the wheel and cut a slot into the lock nut. A short piece of steel strap and an adjustable spanner got the lock nut off. I love having the right tools.
So now, instead of the H/T pattern Duelers, I'm on 17" stock 5 spokes with a set of almost new Rubicon A/T pattern 255/75x17 Wrangler Silent Armor tyres. Wheels, tyres and new TPMS sensors (which I was happy to see worked fine) for the princely sum of $800. Bargain!

HT pattern Duelers? Are they the new stock tyres? The Silent Armours were stock on my 2010 Sport

Including rims and pressure sensors is not too bad
