We installed a set of 37x12.50R17LT Terra Raider M/T KU-255 tires on our ’12 Jeep JK Wrangler and put them through their paces in a variety of off-road situations. Since the Jeep sits atop a set of burly Ultimate Dana 60 axles, we ordered a set of black Pro Comp Xtreme Rock Crawler Series 51 steel wheels from Summit Racing. Summit Racing is almost always our go-to when we need stuff fast and at a great price. Summit was able to get us five of these steel wheels (PN 51-7981) in a 17x9 size with an 8-on-61 ⁄2 bolt pattern and 4.25-inch backspacing sooner than our local off-road shop could.
With the wheels and tires in the bed of our truck, we brought them to our local tire shop to be mounted and balanced and then installed them on our Wrangler. Read on for our review of the Terra Raider M/T KU-255s in a variety of terrain, including road, rock, dirt, and sand.
• On-Road
Fresh off the balancing machine where they took little weight to dial in, the Terra Raider M/T KU-255s rolled very smooth and (from what we can tell in our loud Jeep) quiet on the road.

Ddecades ahead of the '20 four-door Bronco, and even preceding the Ford Explorer and Excursion, came an SUV that could have passed for OEM and was built to answer the call for a three-row people-haulin' off-roader.
JEEP OR BLAZER BUILDING
I was hoping to pick your brain as to a couple of different builds. I have a '19 Jeep Wrangler JL and a '74 Chevy Blazer. I'm a little baffled as to what to focus on. The '74 full convertible Blazer is my dream vehicle. She's been a long build and now I am thinking of focusing my energy on my wife's '19 Jeep JL. I recently joined a Jeep club and have been going off-road with a few guys. I'm shopping around for lift kits. Would you suggest that my time be spent and focused on the Blazer or enjoy the Jeep? I really can't do both.
