Anyone who is currently running or who has run the Mastercraft Courser MXT have anything bad to say about them? Ive been hearing nothing but positive things about them.
I have kind of been wondering the same thing, was really sold on the coopers, but the price difference makes it a hard choice. I have heard good things about the Mastercrafts on this forum, but if you look at amazon reviews, they are a mixed bag. I know to take those with a grain of salt...

Thanks! I'm back and forth if I wanna lift it that 2 inches. Looks perfect for now without a lift

Being that the Mopar kit nets you closer to 3" I think the 315's look better stock as well. I think a true 1.5-2" kit would be ideal, but I think the Jeep looks perfect the way it sits!

I felt the same way. I really wanted to keep the stock ones but these still keep the Jeep feel. I debated getting black lugs but I like the silver ones. Thanks for the compliments.
@jeepfandotcom — This is probably a super noobie question but where would you be able to pick up black lugs? I’m probably going to go with these wheels. Do you have any idea how much they weigh? Thanks!

Yep. Works beautifully. I'm on stock rims. I'll post a pic here later. Can't do it from my phone.

So I just weight my standard Rubicon wheels and 315/70 ko2's. 86.6lbs. I remember reading that Jeep says the stock carrier can handle up to 85lbs (of course). Anyone running the reinforcement? I think I'm going to chance it but I would have bought the reinforcement if it wasn't so expensive.

I won't be running a reinforced tailgate because the tire rests slightly on the lip of the steel rear bumper. It takes a few pounds off it and prevents it from jostling up and down. It keeps it firmly in place. It really worked out perfectly.

So I shouldn't have gotten the relocation bracket from rough country? Same here with the bumper, I just thought the contact was bad.

You can reduce the contact by deflating the spare. I will do a five tire rotation, so wear will reduce it, too. It really is perfect right now. It doesn't cause any issue at all.
