Without having to piece together several pics. Or trying to peek under camo wraps.

The pictures look nice but I wonder what the low end ones look like. It's nice to see they finally painted the full 'cage' again.

Always wondered why Jeep added padding to the rollbar.

I could be wrong on this but I think it's crash related. If you hit your head on the bar then you've got a better chance of less injury with the padding. If you watch the crash test videos you'll see the mannequins in the back seat hitting the padding.

If you look at the overhead shot, it looks like the inside is padded....?

Anyone know if those wheels (as pictured on the Re Rubicon) will be available on the Rubicon or are they aftermarket?

They are optional. I ordered them on mine with 33" KO2's.
