The only trail this Jeep will ever see is a mall parking lot.

28 inch DUB wheels.

That vehicle is not intended to go offroad guys....

Read the description in the ad closer.... it's no longer a "Trail Rated" Edition.... it's a "Carolina Boi" Edition.....

You would not have a choice in the matter. With all the tire dressing on the tread you would quietly and discreetly slide off the cliff, in slow motion, with all 4 wheels locked, as if driving on a wet mirror.
