I'm trying to find out whether I got the right tires on my 2020 JLU Sahara from the factory. It has the 18" wheels.

Here's the possible issue:
On both the Jeep Order Guide, and with the online build configurator, it says that when you get the Anti-spin rear differential option, it includes "All-terrain tires" or "255/70R18 All-Terrain Tires." This applies for both the Sahara and the Sahara Altitude. (It could apply for other variants too, I haven't checked.)

Mine, which has the anti-spin diff, was delivered with Bridgestone Dueler H/T 685 113T's. They have a standard highway tread pattern, which looks like it will be worthless in snow. I wanted the AS diff and the tires so I wouldn't have to worry for driving to winter sports.

Tire Rack describes the Dueler H/T as "Highway All-season," and calls two versions of the Dueler A/T "On/Off Road All-Terrain." So, I am thinking that Jeep is delivering vehicles with the wrong, standard tires when the AS diff is ordered.


So, my question is this: on your 2020 JLU Sahara with 18" wheels,
1. do you have the standard rear diff or the anti-slip rear diff, and
2. what tires did it come with?

I want to know if FCA is pulling a fast one by supplying the same tires for both. If so, I want to get my proper tires. Thanks.

anti-spin rear diff your Jeep should have come with A/T and not H/T. Go back to the dealer and have them check and make sure you got the dana 44 axles with the anti-slip diff and if they got that right claim your A/T tires. My sport came with the Wrangler Kevlar A/T tires.

@Pilotjeep

Why donā€™t you start by posting your build sheet here. Then we can go from there.

Replace the ā€œXā€™sā€ with your VIN number.

https://www.jeep.com/webselfservice/BuildSheetServlet?vin=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
The build sheet specifies anti-slip diff, but Bridgestone all-season tires

I hadn't considered that it could have both the wrorn diff and tires. I took a look at my diff cover, and it doesn't match any Dana identifier pics I can find online

That picture doesn't match. Mine has the plug towards the bottom of that flat, has angled rather than rounded upper and lower left corners, and has a different bolt pattern.

That pic is like other Dana 44 pics I see on identifier pages, which also don't match mine. For example, the one in the page that you posted matches the "Dana 44HD" on this page: https://www.randysworldwide.com/differential-identification-dana/ , but not the Dana 44.

OK, I see that - it's the D44. And hopefully LS per the build spec sheet.

The question remains, why do I have highway tires when all specs available when ordering say that it should have A/Ts
Iā€™m a bit confused here, your posted build sheet lists...ā€œ255/70R18 All Season Tiresā€ and the Bridgestone site says the tyres you have are ā€œall seasonā€ so Iā€™m not sure where the confusion is?

thatā€™s a question you will have to take to your dealer. Honestly donā€™t understand why you havenā€™t at least called them.

Iā€™m a bit confused here, your posted build sheet lists...ā€œ255/70R18 All Season Tiresā€ and the Bridgestone site says the tyres you have are ā€œall seasonā€ so Iā€™m not sure where the confusion is?
All season tyres being different than all terrain tyres ...... seriously, thatā€™s just a weird way to spell tires.

Yes I understand thereā€™s a difference. The point Iā€™m making is that his build sheet says ā€˜all seasonā€™ and thatā€™s what heā€™s got regardless of how we spell tyres lol
