Wasn’t real excited with the 225/75 small look or the 2013 date code on the fronts. This isn’t going to see high mileage or request use so I was looking for a deal on an aggressive looking tire. I spring for 31’s as they fit without a lift. Found a deal on some Dick Cepek Trail Country EXP tires. Less than $500 shipped and $60 mounted. I was looking at $700+ for KO2’s. Figured I’d give these a try. I haven’t driven on them except home so no good evaluation yet but I’m not worried about noise like most complaints. The discount soft top is LOUD at highway speed. Plus I put a bangin system in that I pieced together from stuff I had. They look pretty good not as good as KO2’s or the likes, being so symmetrical looks a bit strange but better than the original

Original tires and soft top :

Yeah soft tops have to be heavy to be quiet, on the old military vehicles the hard tops are louder like being in an echo chamber. I prefer the heavy canvas tops, I think I’m going to get rid of my hard top.
