Sweet! I have a black 2dr X on order as well. Yours looks great. Can't wait to see it with the lift and the 35's. I went with the 32's from the factory, hoping I'll be satisfied with them for a few years.
I'm not sure about your tire cover, but that's just me. I'm looking foward to pulling the stickers off, throwing on a black cover and eventually(a few years from now) getting black wheels. Anyone else ink this would look cool all black?
Anyway, I'm jealous and I'm glad you're enjoying yours.
Have fun!!!

Matt

Just noticed you have half doors. Very cool. If you get around to it can we see it with the top down and the windows out?

thanks, yeah very happy with it so far the tire cover was actually a christmas present from my fiance its suppost to be urban camo(black/gray/white) but was shipped incorrectly, and will be returned and exchanged for the correct one but didn't want to hurt her feelings and put it on for her meanwhile but yeah i agree it doesn't match
once the lift is in i have finally picked out a set of rims and tires for it:

xd assault rims 15x8 or 16x8 whichever will fit. tring to confirm which now. they will go nice with the urban camo cover.

and super swamper traxus tires in 35s have new pics i will post asap with the new addition of a 48" jack on front bumper my other christmas present
oh yeah i will get some topless picks asap too (the jeep not me )

Get 15" rims. They offer more tire for off-roading, and they will fit fine.
Plus 15" tires are cheaper.

I dont know about fitting fine with 15's. They work depending on the design of the rim..

Nice 2 door!

Ive got a black 2dr x myself, and have already pulled the stickers. Soon as i get my tax return im spending ever penny of it on my Jeep with 35" Super Swampers and a 4in lift. Its gonna be all blacked out as well. Black rims and blackwall tires, with no stickers. Should look good i think.

yeah i am hoping the 15" will fit that is my first choice, but i love those rims. so in the case that the design of them makes them unable to fit the brake calipers etc then i will have to go with the 16". but i do agree i would prefer the 15" they are about $15 cheaper per rim and the tires are about $25 cheaper per tire. compared to the 16"s so if i have to up size to 16s it adds about $160 to the cost :( so crossing my fingers on these alloys fitting in the 15x8 size.
plus i like the look of meaty tires on vs larger rims. this isn't a hummer mall crusier after all

yeah its kinda annoying, when most of the online shops aren't listing 15's for the jk. 4wheelhardware had then on there for the jk last month and now they have only 16's listed for the jk. i had one in the shopping cart saved and now the link i have says not right product code as it is no longer avaible. but either way i found those rims and like them better anyway.
