Went out to Barnwell Mountain Rec Area in Gilmer, TX the other day - had some fun just doing some easy off roading since I only had my stock tires on - See pics below.

Nice pics! May I ask why you've been swapping between the 20" OEM/Yokos and FJ/BFG MTs? Any issues w/ the OEM setup on your trip here? You could probably provide a great comparison between the two...[/QUOTE]

I bought the FJ wheels and tires for a great deal ($600 for all 5) - hard to pass up. The reason I got them was so that I would not scratch up the 20 inch wheels on rocks etc. Since driving on both of them the ride is much softer off road with the FJ set up due to the softer & larger rubber lugs and the larger sidewall - also with the larger side wall it is easier to air down if needed. On road the BFG MTs are pretty loud and take away 1-2 MPGs so I do not keep them on when driving around town. I did not feel like making the swap since this was a last minute trip but I did not have any trouble with the Bridgestone's that came stock on my Limited - never slipped once and stayed in 4HL for most of the time.
