I discovered this just recently. I bought a 2015 Wrangler Sahara to 'off-road' with some buddies. One friend has a 2023 Rubicon with all the factory bells and whistles (VERY capable). Another has a 2019 with all the after market bells and whistles. So long as clearance wasn't the issue (and it was) I could do everything they could on Pirelli Scorpion Road tires.

I can't speak for everyone but we like them a lot, especially for how we use them on this Jeep. It should be noted that we did purposefully get ours in a load range C. We did this for ride comfort as the E, while strong in the side wall, is pretty rough.

Nice can't believe you were able to hold out this long! Definitely shaping up to be a solid OEM+ unit. Probably as much or more than what a large percentage of people would actually need to get to and back home from wherever they may roam!

Yup, we've run ProComp in the past and they are a nice tire that hooks up well on the rocks. They are made by Cooper and perform the same. A bit too soft for our taste though and found them to chunk and wear out fast due to the soft compound.

Nice job & great presentation. You do well with the camera & explanation. The tire options are ubiquitous with brands, styles & targeted use. And each tire store, arguably, has a preference for certain tires over another . And to the buyer, costs, discounts & desires can push one this or that direction. For 4dr.'s I see many going with some type of Mud Tire, but with 2dr., I see tire shops recommending something "lighter". I had a two door Rubicon with MT's on for a while and then a friend (tire shop owner) recommended a Goodyear Duratrac, feeling that would handle the road, backcountry and occasional four wheeling better than a MT (for that vehicle). The Nitto Range Grappler is a fine tire, particularly for a 2dr.; hopefully it meets the needs & desires of the 2 drivers.
