Default New rims/tires on the Jeep!

Well my Fiance's Cherokee had bad tires that needed replaced. Llesra had some of the original tires from a disco left over..(THANKS A MILLION MAN)! But to get the tires I had to find 16" rims to replace the 15" rims!

So found some rims on Craigslist from a 1997 Ford Explorer.. Then picked up the tires from arsell...So I gained about 2 inches of clearance because of tire size!!!! The rims look a lot better!! it rides better.... there is more clearence....ETC!!

And to add to the good times.LMAO!!!!!!! While I was doing the test run with the rims/tires I kinda got pulled over by the state patrol..LOL Apparently the new rims/tires go fast..LMAO!! Here are a few pics of the Jeep!

Did he get his "nasty book" out or did you sweet talk him round with the "hello Mr Officer Highway patrol man cuty-pie sexy pants..." routine?!

Superb! Is good that she had her head screwed on and nothing like the movie portrayal of US highway patrolmen.

Hey at least you got a warning!

I bought my Rover so I wouldn't get speeding tickets. So what happened? . . Yeah I got pulled over, The officer stepped up to the window holding his side arm, the first thing he said "well you were going the speed limit . . . . but it's a school zone." It was mid July! He gave me the ticket and complimented my rover and asked what year it was. Why do cops try and be nice after giving a ticket?
