165k on tires?
Haven't checked in for a while, just reading over some old posts...
165k miles on one set of tires on 4x4 jeep? Come-on, I wasn't born yesterday. That's good that you got so many miles out of a Jeep, not very typical. What kind of tires are you running? Must have bought them from NASA!

My commuter is an 89 Toyota mr2 with 265,000 on it. Runs and drives perfect and all I've done to it are timing belts, a clutch, and regular maintenance. My father in law runs a roofing business and drives a 96 F250 powerstroke with 480,000 mi on it. (last time I heard him say anyway) He's had injector problems and is on his 2nd tranny but he never takes that truck anywhere without a trailer behind it.
