Jeep Wrangler lift kit, mud tire removal for free if dealer / mechanic keeps parts?
Hello to all you jeep guys out there.
So the story goes, I just bought a couple year old wrangler. I love it, has low miles, strong engine but it has a 4″ lift kit on it and some huge mud tires and premium wheels (details to follow).
I live in the city and beyond must being complete overkill I think it looks a little trashy for my tastes. The thing has been babied, I mean it’s an absolute creme puff and the tires, lift kit and wheels are in mint condition, never even taken off road (rich guy who just liked how it looked).
My question regards removing the lift kit and downgrading to just regular old premium jeep wheels and tires.
Is it unreasonable for me to think that I might be able to go into a jeep dealer or mechanic and offer them the parts in exchange for finding me a standard set of premium jeep alloy wheels and some decent name brand tires and swapping them out?
Specs as follows:
* 4″ Superlift Suspension Lift with shocks.
* 5-8″ Mickey Thompson Classic Lock Wheels
* Mud King 33×12.50×15 Tires
Just looking for the premium wheelset from a new wrangler and some nice / new namebrand tires.
Let me know what you think?

most dealers won’t go that route, selling used parts.
best thing you can do is sell them on e-bay.
Swapping back to original is easy. It would be very hard to find a mechanic that would simply swap parts for you. I would think the way to go would to be to put your request on craigs list. Good luck.
sounds like a nice jeep. Your best bet is to find someone with a stock jeep and who’s willing to do the swap. You might be better off selling it and just buying a stock jeep. Good luck~Dan

I’m pretty sure you’ll find someone on there who’d be willing to swap out there stock parts for your lift and tyres. That way you get what you want and someone gets the lift they want.
I think that would be the way to go.
