tires - depends on your driving and type...... typically around 1k every 15 - 20 k (less miles with lots of tire roasting!!!!!) gas - 4+ bucks a gallon....just do the math on how many miles you drive the car per year oil service - roughly 80 bucks every 3 - 5 thousand miles..... again, do the math on how many miles per year you drive! getting pulled over at over 140mph and cop just wants to ask about the car........... PRICELESS!!!!
400 a tire, holy cow!! what about brakes, I heard the brakes wear down fast. Is that true? what do pads run?
brakes are no worse off than any other car with high end performance brakes. i changed out my last pads for 100 bucks!
20 inch rear tires are not cheap, they are runflats. you can always do what others have and put on non-runflats and worry about a spare or fix a flat options
run flats????? i know mine did not come with run flats!!!! i was not aware any of the tire options gave you runflats???? i know in 06 / 07 goodyear rsa's or F1's were the only choice........ maybe things have changed in 08'.....
oops!!! my bad, i guess i need to pay attention to the forum section i am in!!! dahahahahaahahahah yes, on the jeeps they came with runflats!!! doh!!!!! hahaahahahhaa
yepper, the brakes are the same but the jeep is a bit heavier, thus a little tougher on the brakes!!! and yes, you can change the color of your calipers on a jeep...... i actually run the black jeep brembos on my charger!!!
The Jeep is just awesome. Great feeling to be able to smoke someone out of the whole..every time lol. You'll lose money getting rid of it in 2 years...but again, the fun of the ride may be worth it to you.
man this such a tough decision, I like them but man is it that practical in the winter, we have a pretty long winter here in AK
i could not see myself driving it in the winter......just does not seem to practical..... now a large 4x4 truck on the other hand for winters in AK!!! lol
