Consumer Description

PURCHASED A USED 2004 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON WITH 11000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER, AFTER DRIVING THE VEHICLE FOR SEVERAL MONTHS I NOTICED THAT THE ODOMETER SEAMED TO BE READING SLOW, SO I HAD THE ODOMETER CHECKED BY A STATE TROOPER AND FOUND OUT THAT AT 45 MPH I WAS ONLY MOVING AT 40 MPH. WITH FURTHER INVESTIGATION I FOUND THAT THE TIRES AND RIMS ARE NOT THE RIGHT SIZE FOR THE VEHICLE. THE TIRES THAT WHERE ON THE JEEP WHEN I PURCHASED IT ARE P225/75R15, THE MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDS LT245/75R16, IS THIS VEHICLE SAFE TO DRIVE? THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE JEEP FROM REFUSES TO MAKE IT RIGHT. WOULD THE 11000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER BE RIGHT OR COULD IT BE MORE? *JB
