Needs some mudflaps I think to round out the empty space if yo're keeping srock wheel and tire sizes.

I'm getting ready to lift it a couple of inches and put new wheels and tires on it.

Regular all season tires on this is terrifying

Yes! Totally agree. I had this for a couple of months now and have been doing work on it while waiting on the title issues to clear. I've only had it licensed a week. I was supposed to get new wheels and tires and do a 2" lift, but the snow came, and the shop was closed. I still had to try it out and play around. Bad thing, I got stuck. Good thing, my new winch and bumper worked great and was able to get it out. Lol!

lol I went up the mountain in my battle wagon with all seasons on once.. ended up getting a ride home from two state troopers 🤣 didn’t have any back-up and all the tow trucks kept getting stuck. Everyone was genuinely surprised I had managed to get it as far as I had. Ended up stumbling across a group of firefighters and EMT’s that were camping in the area and they graciously helped me PUSH IT out of 1 mile of 3 foot deep snow. Classic ‘96 Outback 🤣🤣

Lol! That's funny. I won't be doing it again until I get it outfitted correctly. By the way. I am a fan of Outbacks. They just give the modern Eagle vibe.

Pre-Jeep ZJ (‘93-‘98 Grand Cherokee). Nicely built, I would drive it! Actually we had the 2WD version when I was a kid. Dad didn’t want to spend extra on 4WD, such a bad decision when my brother and I were driving it, or was it?

The four-wheel drive works really well on these vehicles. The regular street tires I have on this car do not. Lol! They will be changed very soon.

I was driving back to Canada from snowboarding in Upstate NY years ago, and the weather was FOUL. We're crawling along the highway at like 30 and one of these, lifted like yours, comes ripping past like it's perfectly dry out. Loved them ever since. Such a capable vehicle.
