JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! 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.

This is how they should come from the factory. Perfect size.

I see a lot of people who advised against 35X12.50 on the 7.5 inch wide stocks. Has anyone had any issues or concerns with airing down? I use my JK on the beach a lot and don't want any issues if I'm upgrading to 35's on my 18 inch sahara wheels. Thanks. BTW, I am loving all these 35's with stock wheels.

I haven't aired down but my buddy ran his stock rubi rims on 37's with spacers and never lost a bead since the wheel is so narrow it acts kinda like a bead lock, he would go to like 10 I believe but we play on rocks

Default Thanks!

Thanks for all of the input guys. I ended up going with the 315/70/17 Duratracs cause it is a DD. I will post pictures as soon as I get the 4"er and the new tires on.

If you are looking to upgrade to 35" tires, I would definitely recommend regearing. The ideal gears for 35" tires are 4.11-4.88. With a 3.21, you will go from 0-60 by sunday afternoon. It may not even be enough power to make it up an incline without pushing your foot through the floor and going flinstone style. Definitely look into regearing for that increase of size and weight of a tire. Hate to be the bearer of bad news...

I believe you can google "wrangler gearing wheel size chart" and it will give you a range of options.

Are you referring to the old 3.8 or the pentastar 3.6 engine?
