Upgraded to the Wranglers
I upsized to the Goodyear Wrangler 265/60/18's and love em. I had Definity road tires on before and they were mostly fine for my urban driving but these are next level. they look great ad feel really good on the road. havent done any rough road riding yet or much highway but im happy with this decision. I'm in the middle of a bunch of upgrades, including bumpers, stereo, starter, battery, windshield cowl, 2003 grill....so i'll update.

Because, they draw almost no power, last alot longer, and they do not get hot.
Plus, they come in several colors, and the tube shaped "bulbs" come either covered in leds, or with just 1 or 2 rows of them, on the same part# bulb(the individual diodes on the boards are in horizontal rows across the "bulb", how many rows determines light output And ability to aim the light. Single or double rowed bulbs, vs bulbs completely covered in rows, still put out alot of light, and much, much more than stock incandescent bulbs).
On the ones with just one or 2 rows of leds, you can rotate them in the dome light housings, which is like aiming a flashlight.
So you can point the light directly up, down, back, front, 45 degrees, whatever.
That dramatically brightens or darkens the interior, and/or helps light up or darken one area more than another.
With "bulbs" completely covered in leds, those are all Very bright, all the time.
I have bought many leds for many vehicles.
The cheap ones on ebay, from several sources, always either flicker or die in a short time, and the colors aren't the best.
Superbrightleds.com has quality stuff that looks great and lasts for years.

My wife left my Disco's rear cargo door wide open with all 3 LED interior lights on all night. The next morning the lights were still on and I'm thinking the battery was dead and that I was screwed not being able to start the Disco. Nope! The Disco started right up without a low starter cranking sound.
The only problem was getting all the insects out of the cab that hovered around the lights.
