- At some public land playing in the dirt and doing some independent testing of my Trail Rated 2014 Grand Cherokee Overland with Quadra-Drive 2. Everything is stock accept for the BFG T/A KO2 tires that are 265/70R18.

Finally a Grand Cherokee owner using it as a Jeep. And with proper tires. Thank You
Nice job. Best 'off road' video I've been able to find for this Jeep.
Thanks a lot. Had super fun that day. Do you have this model jeep
+Rhinomssy No... I'm picking up a 2014 Summit this weekend, hence my searches. lol. There are minor differences between the Overland and Summit but the performance off road will be the same.
+Jennifer “kudos2jen” Droppo Yeah there are subtle differences like no tow hooks on the summit and the head lights not moving with the steering wheel on the overland. But if you get a summit with the offroad adventure package 2 then it will have the skid plates and come with Quadra-drive 2. Also for going offroading or anything off regular pavement your going to need a different tire. It also makes the jeep lol a whole lot better than the stock tires. The Quadra-drive 2 4x4 system is amazing but without good all terrain tires for it to use its almost pointless to get.
Check out Prodigal Overland.
Y'all made that look easy. Great communication and fantastic driving skills!
hell yea son!
it's crazy how capable these things are.
Totally agree
I just sold my jeep overland commander to my brother it was a beast offroad lots of work done to it now looking at 2013 or 14 overland. Good video bro hopefully i can post some soon
6:28 shows why Jeep is Jeep. 👍🇺🇸
Skid plates ..rock rails ... first in class LSD
Awesome sir... I made it feel like I was there in the moment. @jeep I salute you!!!
These vehicles are so capable. Looks like fun!
Smooth! Nice wheeling. Thanks for showing us the wk2 in action!
Haha, watched the return run. You're a great friend.
Nice job guys! You proved that the Grand Cherokee is not just good looking but very capable off-road.
+Marc Nunez The ride is fantastic bro. Not bumpy or loud.You won't be sacrificing any smoothness. I've seriously been pleased with these tires. I was originally thinking about the Nitto Terra Grapplers but a friend of mine that has the same jeep as me got the BFG's and I was instantly sold.
Im thinking on getting the same BFG´s, do they rub when it automatically lowers or is it fine? Thanks
Cant wait to get mine!
Great vid Rhinomssy! Goes to show you how tough the JGC can be,
About to buy one of these. Was trying to see if it could go off-road. Holy shizzle.
This is an awesome video! That's some pretty tough off roading too...I got my Overland 4x4 feet wet for the first time recently, been hoping I could get back out there ever since!
It can definitely take it. Just don't leave it sitting in any high water for over 15 minutes. The door seals are only good for 15 minutes and water will leak in. Learned the hard way.
That grand cherokee has those baby ruts all day 👍👍
Beautiful Jeep men! I been a Overland 4x4 owner for many years and it’s very much capable in doing much more than these moguls! With the right tires on this Jeep can climb the side of a mountain and up and over rock ledges and through the big! Looking good and enjoy your ride!
paul lovallo these guys are posers with a machine more capable than they are....trail driving and rhey think they're on Devils Ridge or something.... shame
@@capitaldd5840 dang, not sure how we were posers just by taking my jeep to do a bit of trail riding. Would love to go to devils ridge but until then all I got is the few spots around my hometown. Why even comment with that junk?
For real man. These guys got out of their comfort zone and risked messing up their newer GC and had a blast and demonstrated the beauty of good engineering, which is also a statement about the accomplishments of mankind. Sound heady? Sorry. Those guys were having so much fun. It’s also notoriously difficult to convey the steepness of terrain with regular cameras. Sometimes you can see how the saplings are growing “at an angle” but not an angle to flat ground. And worst of all; POSERS? Posers would be Kickin the big fat tires and stupid black rims with fake beadlocks and of course dressed like IndyFuckingAna Jones but the embroidered Jeep cap and a fanny pack with an iPad instead of treasure pouch and whip. These guys were the polar opposite of posers. They were doers. Factory basic stock GC tires and all. Bam!!
Bring it. I once had to take my nearly brand new 2005 GC non 4X4, through a 5 foot deep ditch that was dry, but I couldn’t afford to get stuck, and I couldn’t afford to NOT get my equipment that had been left inside the property and all the gates were locked. I had about a 1’ space on either side of the truck to miss the gate post and a 4”x4” post. Ugh. And I had to cross at like a 45 degree angle. I wasn’t worried about it flipping, but I wasn’t sure how my uphill rear tire would cope with grip while the downhill right rear tire was hangin in the air. So I just aimed and jabbed the throttle knowing the back end would slide over a bit since there was no way the rear end wouldn’t slip to the right going up the other side of the ditch. Well was I forevermore surprised!! I was careful not to spin the back tires but I needed enough speed to blow through the obstacle if I lost all traction, basically get through with inertia. Driver side got scratched above back tire by an unseen protrusion. Rubbed it out and touched it with red Sharpie before wife saw, but she saw the shitty touch up later. Anyway, the left front end started to rise sharply and even though it was late at night, all I could see was sky and treetops. I didn’t want to get stuck so I stayed in it and the left front wheel finally dropped with a gentle thud. It had to be 3-4 feet under that tire at one point. But I never “felt” the tire leave the ground! Unreal and quite a feeling. I got out and looked around, kissed the truck, then hauled ass down a long straight dirt road with just fog lights on and I forgot about the whoop-de-doos about 50 yards apart and I had to be doing 45mph when that truck launched and landed square on all fours on the backside of the jump, I mean hill. I had driven that dirt road a million times during the day and with a golf cart most of the time. Those little humps seemed like nothing at the time. Wholly shit that was fun!! Risky but fun. Jeep. Don’t underestimate them.
@@Rhinomssy on point. Cool video mate
Absolutely Awesome Jeep! And Great Video. Well Done Gentlemen!! I want More!!!
It's in the works and thanks for the comment.
Good Deal Man!! Haha!
"I don't think the Jeep made for this... that's a little more than Trail Rated" Famous last words. Jeep can go anywhere brotha
did you have to use 4x4 low or just sand /mud mode? This is all new to me. Thanks
I see you went with the 30” tires. Very nice. They look like a tight fit. How do they fit? Did they rub in the turns or had to get any wheel spacers. I was think of getting 33s on my 20s. +Rhinomssy
Saludos,cual es la altura maxima del pizo al chasis,en la posicion mas alta.
Incredible!!!
Nice!!!🤘 what level are your air suspensions at ?
You can remove the bottom part of the front bumper fascia (maybe the rear one too)
so you don't mangle it going through rough terrain. A few easy-pop fasteners. It's designed specifically to do that.
Yeah I was being hard headed and lazy that day and didn't take it off. Thankfully I didn't hear anything up
Nice one. Awesome.
Nice video, "trust your jeep"👍🏼.. I wanted to ask how do you like those Ko2? How do they preform on and off road? Is there any noise?
Thanks
I think they are the best All Terrain tire of right now. I did my research on them and the Nitto Terra Grappler G2 and these came out on top. I've used the first version of the Terra Grapplers on another jeep I have and they were good but not nearly as good as these. Also the size of this tire on this type of vehicle is huge, meaning this size for is made for a heavy duty pickup like a Chevy 2500 of F250, something that's going to be doing a lot of hauling. When I bought them at Costco the mechanic said that with the new upgrades BFG made with this tire if I don't get 90,000 miles out of them I am retarded because the toe is made for easy much more than I could put them through on this type of vehicle. They are quiet and ride excellent and I've driven them in mud and show no problems yet.
Dang! I thought he was hosed a few times! Maybe some rock rails, are in that Cherokee's future!
I hope so
Do these come with a ride height adjustment? The one I was looking at went from 6" to 14", was just wondering if they all did.
Yeah they have what's called Quadra-Lift suspension. The normal ride height is 8 inches. You can raise it to 10 inches or go up to 12 inches. Also you can lower it to right above 6 inches.
Question for you all...I’m about to buy a ‘14 Overland with the Off-Road II package (air suspension, etc.) and Hemi. How come it doesn’t have the Trail Rated badge? My last ‘14 Limited with the same OR-II options did...?
That's very strange bro. That's a question for jeep to answer cause as far as I knew once you get the off-road package II it comes with the trail rated badge.
Hay Man, cool ride, did you add spacers or modified the inner fender wells for this size 265/70R18 ?? and is it rubbing in Exit/Entry mode or Normal mode ? Thanks in advance :)
Nah no mods on her, just the tires. When it's fully lowered it scrubs a tiny tiny bit when you turn your wheels. No rubbing in normal mode
Good vid
I have the exact same jeep. Love it. I just put 265/60/18 ko2's on her this morning. Love them dealer put 45 psi in them do you need to bother to air down for back woods driving? Nothing too crazy I am driving on lumber roads.
redbutbearhair awesome bro. Would love to see some vids or pics of it. As far as airing down I'll drop to maybe 25 or 30psi. When I got mine they put 50psi in them. Watch out with the speedometer. There will be a speed different from what the speedometer says and what your actually doing. The difference gets greater the faster you go.
Thanks so far the tires are incredible lol Day 2. did you have to use 4x4 low or just sand /mud mode? This is all new to me. Thanks
What size and brand tires you running
I have to get one of these.
About to take home a trailhawk. What’d these tires do to your fuel economy? I’m debating these or 265/65 or 275/65 so I don’t rub. Idk if I’ll do it if the tires make me get 12mpg haha
I haven't honestly seen a difference. I'm sure it's a difference but it's so minimal I haven't noticed. Your not going to get 12mpg lol. I've got the v8 and I get 22 on the highway and around 17-18 city. If I put it in eco mode I can get a little more.
I have a stock WK2 Laredo 2014 and it eats mud up so easily. I might upgrade to an Overland soon.
Michael Dugan you won't regret it bro
Rhinomssy yeah either that or a wrangler haven't decided yet I'll probably trade in my 2014 Laredo
Michael Dugan uses wrangler or new. If your going to trade it in are you going to wait for the new model wrangler or stick with the JK
Rhinomssy how’s your Jeep holding up? Any transmission problems?
Impressive I haven't tested mine that hard
You should post a video of yours and test a bit. Really fun. And it's pointless I think to have all the features and not at least try them out and see what it does.
What tires are those, the ko2's? Do they ever rub? Especially when the suspension is at its max points.
I've been wanting those but hear they wont fit. Are those 17s or 18s? Im on 20s.
These are 265 70 R18 KO2s. They fit great on this jeep. They did scrub a little at the jeeps lowest level and when the wheels were turned all the way to either side.
Does your GC have Quadra Lift air suspension or is this all normal height? My 2018 Limited has 265/60 18 which calculates to 30.4 diameter and 10.4 width and the front already looks like it doesn't have enough room to go larger diameter. The 265/70 18 you have here looks like it calculates to 32.6 diameter same width - but that's a big difference of 2 inches so just wondering.
Yes it has Quadra lift..
If you watch the video at the 1:40 mark I raise it up
Rhinomssy, great vid! Do you have the same size wheel as a spare? Does it fit in spare wheel space?
I couldn't fit the ATs in the spare wheel well
+Rhinomssy thanks for the reply. It has been a mission finding details about this size wheel on a GC. Thanks for sharing the vid!
Is that beeping in there? My bad. LOL
Taking the correct like it is very capable
Should get rock sliders, also you can remove the front air dam to give better approach angle.
After seeing first hand that my friend almost tore the side off my jeep I'm definitely getting some rock sliders, and funny you say that about the front air dam because three days later I was offroading again and I failed to take it off and it got ripped off. Thankfully it's supposed to come off and I was able to put it back on. Won't be making those mistakes anymore. Thanks for the comment bro
LOL yep, the first thing I did was to install rock sliders and full underbody bash plates.
I have also installed a winch bar. see my page for my overland in action
Rhinomssy Whoa. What friend almost tore the side of the Jeep off. You couldn't possibly be referring to me sir??? :-(
Man of course not homie we talking about the other video Lmbo 😂
Damnnn did that not bend up the sides there bottoming out like that?
Thankfully it did not
are those stock rims? if not, how much did you pay for the rims and tires
Yes these are stock rims but the tires are not stock. They cost about 1,100.00 at Costco. The rims are 18“ and this style rim only comes on GC with the "off-road adventure II package" .
How does it ride on the highway? Thinking of getting these for mine, but 265/60. I see you went a little bigger. The OEM tires are almost done for and I'd like to get some really good tires without sacrificing a lot of smoothness.
I run 265 60 18 great off road and on the highway
What size tires are you running? Thanks.
BF Goodrich KO2's 265/70 R18
AWww man right over that baby tree!
You know it
Nice Grand
Aussie Four Wheelers (Hemi4WD) Thanks buddy. I'm a huge fan of your page so I definitely appreciate your comment on my page.
Rhinomssy Thank you very much bud. I can feel your excitement after the rut at 6:30. It's amazing how much the traction control helps at 6:40.
Aussie Four Wheelers (Hemi4WD) Truly amazing how much the traction control helps. I was starting to get worried and thinking like "awww man I'm going to get stuck out here" and thankfully that front right tire had some traction to pull us out.
Rhinomssy it's not the traction control that's helping you do this terrain, your jeep has center diff and rear lockers from the factory.
Hey ryan do you still have your 2014 grand cherokee??? I just got one...
Sadly it got totaled bro. Planning on getting either a trailhawk or overland again though
going to do this with my 2014 Laredo
***** is you last name really Dillinger?
What size tires do you have? And brand/model tired. Just picked up an Overland. Thanks.
They are BF Goodrich KO2's 265/70 R18. They are larger than the original tires but I love them. More aggressive look, strong and super functional. The only thing with the larger tire is that it will throw your speedometer off and the faster you go the bigger the difference in actual speed. For instance when the speedometer says I'm doing 40mph the actual speed is 42mph and when I'm doing 70mph I'm actually doing 74.5mph. I took it to the dealership to see if they could recalibrate it to the new tires size and the closest calibration they have is the one it was already set at, so just keep that in mind if you get the larger tires.
Thanks! Good lookin out.
Christopher P. Salazar no problem. Jeepers got to look out for each other. Would like to see your jeep. Post some vids of it when u get a chance
Nice.
Hey man nice video, Im about to buy those tires. What size are they? is it the stock size 265/60 r18?
265/70 R18
+Rhinomssy RIght on, I went to Costco and the tech wrote down 265/60 R18. Did you have to sign off the waiver of warranty to get the wider ones? it obviously doesn't look like you have any rubbing issues. My JGC doesn't have the quadra lift suspension, but it is 4x4. I wonder if it will rub on mine
+Cash Miller nah it won't rub at regular height. Only when I lower it it rubs but you shouldn't have to worry about that
+Cash Miller and yes they made me sign the waiver also. It's cause they aren't standard size. They ride great
+Cash Miller FYI those tires are taller not wider than stock 265/60 R18. 265 is the width size. /60 is the ratio of height compared to width (60%). Just so you know, the more rubber between the rim and the road, the better the ride will be. I always try to get the tallest tire I can because of that.
I lov jeep ❤️👌🏻🕵
how do you know it has quadra drive 2 i have same car and it doesnt say that it has it but apperantly it does
It was on the window sticker when I bought it. Also you can put your VIN in the search tool on jeeps website and it will tell you the specs on your vehicle.
@@Rhinomssy will also tell you when you first start it up. Great driving....my 2011 rocks
When will u get the trailhawk?
Just got a trailhawk
LETSSSS GOOOOOO
Nice Jeep! I hope your buddy didn't scratch it up to much with those trees. Though I can't wait to pick up mine soon.
I just new it was going to be all kinds of scratched after he went towards the bushes but thankfully it didn't scratch. Which one are you getting? Oh and thanks for the comment.
I am going to get the 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland 4x4 in white.
Brian M I love the white color. Great all around vehicle. Just make sure your buddies don't drive it in the bushes lol.
I am very particular about my vehicles...I doubt I will let my wife drive it...lol...my luck she would find the only bush in a newly paved parking lot.
Rhinomssy Pick up my Overland yesterday via my wife. I was able to get a great deal..$41,XXX. Cant wait to get home to drive it around.

'FOR SALE' Never been off roaded ! ;)
What tires?
BFG KO2's
That jeep can more than handle that terrain, just point it and go. Ive had my '04 GC in a lot worse than this...Trick is to be confident but not over confident...I hear some Jeep glee in there too...
Yes yes...”give it gas” .... put that 5.7 to work.... love my Jeep Grand Cherokee... and take it off road no matter what.... farmer field.... undeveloped new subdivision... where there is mad... there’s a real Jeep owner
Bahama Hax ...mad...mud...madness! ;-)
did the bigger tires require any extra mods? I know the 70's are a little bigger than stock.
Danny Beckwith negative bro no extra mods required. The Overland I have has Quadra lift so even if I lowered it to the lowest setting it would just barely scrape.
Great! Is this V8?
Yeah sorry I should have put that in the description. It is a Hemi V8
Did you use 4wd low in this video?
Didn't use low just auto mode
@@Rhinomssy great man. Thanks
5.7 Hemi?
You bet
Hello my brother What are the maximum speed of the car I am the Middle East and the maximum speed of 180 km my car Grand Cherokee limited to 2014 5.7????
The max speed is limited to 120mph. And I have the 5.7 Hemi V8. The SRT has a top speed of 165mph.
Remote my car to Iwo very faithful punk button Is there a punk button in your car ?
Thank you very much
I ask because Alsearhkd specifications may vary from one country to another
Remote my car has to open and close the doors and open the back door only
TOOMY ALTOOMY I'm not sure what a punk button is. When you say "remote my car" are you referring to the auto start from the key fob?
I mean the alarm button is red in the remote
Good for you to find the position of your car
Those chrome side mirrors just wreck the whole look
I'm cool with the mirrors their not anything I like or dislike. I watched your video. Pretty cool jeep. Like you said the grands here in the states are totally different. Your Laredo version would be more of a limited here especially with the HID bi/xenon headlights. Those aren't even available as a option here in the states. Can't wait to see you take yours offroading.
+SpazDillinger Here in Europe they are in body color on the Overland
Does this jeep have quadralift?
Yeah it has it. All overland editions come with it even if they don't have four wheel drive
Oh ok I didn't realize it was available in 2wd. My jeep makes aloud clunky noise if I hit big bumps when in it is lifted all the way does yours do that? dealer said its normal with the air suspension.
Is that the V8?
Yeah mine makes that noise as well when I raise it up. It's normal. It's the air bag compressing and then popping back into its normal shape /position. Nothing to worry about. And yes this is a Hemi V8.
haaa put the keys in your pocket lol! dude you have to open and close the door
gospelcrusader I know bro. I was having a huge brain fart.
Looks like you'd be better taking out your sway bars when you're going to do trails like that; keep your wheels on the ground.
I'm pretty sure this model grand cherokee doesn't have a sway bar. Independent suspension
+Rhinomssy Yeah, gotcha. Thinking of my old days. Haven't gone off roading in years and just got a GC Overland. Haven't had a chance to do a thing with it yet, but very excited.
It's got sway bars front and rear. If you still got it try disconnecting em and see how she does.
I had a 2014 Laredo qt1 and it surprised the hell outta me with how capable the base 4x4 system is
💪💪💪💪💪💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Can someone please tell me why the fuck none of the drivers jacked up the car with the quadra lift?
If your asking why wasn't the jeep in off-road 2 mode where it's lifted fully I'm not quite sure. Can't remember. It s at least in off-road 2 mode. Basically half way to fully lifted
Check my Laredo out.....
Why those tires look like there covered in doritos 🤔
Could be Doritoes 🤔
I don't like the video because he hesitated to drive over the terrain you have a Jeep you don't have to hesitate to drive you will make it over anything no matter what , if you don't know it by now you have a Jeep you can make it through damn near everything , so start acting like it !!!!
When you make it out of the hood and find an entrance to a 2 track trail lol.
You're spotter and cameraman doesn't know how to guide you nor does he care much about your body panels.

@@Rhinomssy hey man. What would you say your stance is on this jeep with the 265/70/r18 tires and stock wheels? Does it stick out an inch or does it run pretty flush?

Hey man, if its not private land, where is this in Alabama?
It was anew subdivision development. So I guess private land. On the weekends the bulldozers and heavy machinery were not at work moving dirty so I would go drive out there. So much fun
