Which Wranglers?

You sure put a heap of miles on that thing in two years. That truck must be light on it's feet. What I drive are 3/4t trucks with weight in them. So, no dreams of such long life out of tires here. I run only quality tires and I also rotate every 5,000 to keep wear even. I bought a new '87 Samurai for my wife she drove to nursing school for three years. She put 70,000 miles on it while we had it and the tires still looked almost new. I figured it was the light weight. Never needed any brake work either
