Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Default Painted My New Shoes



Just installed my new painted Rubi wheels. I had them powder coated a Matte Black. Also, i took the the TPMS out of my Sahara wheels and simply put them into the new Rubi wheels. Everything works great. I really feel like im driving a JEEP now. Let me know what you guys think.

Sorry for the cell phone pic i will add when i get some digital pics

I'm powdercoating my wheels because it's cheaper than gettin new ones altogether. Later on I'd probably upgrade to Pro Comp 7005s because they are what I originally wanted, but for now, powdercoating will have to do. In my opinion, the 7005s looks wayyy better, but the powdercoated wheels don't look terrible either. I like 'em. No offense to the OP, the all black look is freakin' awesome!!
