I bought the antenna from AutoZone, it’s nothing special, I spent about 12 bucks. I do have some issues once in a while with reception. I don’t think that antenna impacts the satellite radio.
Not yet, I’m about 1000 miles in. One guy at the tire shop (Discount Tire) had a JK, he claimed he hadn’t had any issues. However, his tire wedge into the bumper when close, adding additional support.
Thank you!
1) Yes, since the wheels stick out a couple of inches it tends to kick up slush, rain water, etc on top of the fenders. I live in the Detroit area so I deal with the snow about 4-5 months out of the year as well.
2) Road noise is tolerable, I tend to play music or listen to sports...
Wow, you guys are like a jeep scientist...lol. Talking about gear ratios in relation to tire size and weight. Outside of a little road noise and a small decrease in gas mileage my Jeep is fine. If you’re concerned about gas mileage, you probably bought the wrong vehicle :cwl:
I’m running 33s on my Sahara with no issues. 275/70s is just a bit taller than my 33s, so you should be fine. Check out the link below, you can enter tire sizes to see how they compare

Thanks! Stability about the same or better. The road noise isn’t too loud, but it’s defintely noticeable. I ride with my radio on most of the time so it drowns out the noise. No rubbing.
