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.

looks great, are those pro comp 7069s? I might be running that same setup if I decide on these KO2 in 37s. Really looking for longer term reviews before I pull the trigger. I am running KM2s right now and I like them but I am ready to step it up to 37s finally and want some light ones with my D30 up front. look forward to seeing more reviews on these tires

Yes they are 7069's. I've driven both KO2's and KM2's. Except for mud and looks, the KO2 is lighter, way better on the street and quieter by far. I really like the KO2's.

Thinking about upgrading from my 33" toyos to these 37 KO2's running hurricane flats could I get by with an aev 2.5 lift or would I be better to just go for the 3.5 in lift? I want some room for articulation and don't want rubbing

I run a MC 2.5" with MCE flats with no problems.

I am going with the AEV 3.5" & KO2s in 37" also on my 2014 2dr Rubicon. I Will start with the 4.10 gears/auto setup then upgrade to 4.56 if i feel the need .

Running 37s on 4.10? You *will* feel the need... and depending on where you live (elevation and/or very hilly) you might consider 5.13 or even 5.38. I live at higher elevation and run 37s on 5.13 with a stick shift - wishing i went to 5.38 instead.

My jeep is a 2014 with an auto so i think that would be to much gear. My 2012 with the auto / 4.10 combo was pretty good with 35" Cooper STT tires (same weight as 37" ko2). I know the extra tire height will affect the gear ratio more though.

I have a 2012 JKUR Auto. with 35s and 4.10s I thought it wasn't too bad. Put on 37" BFG Krawlers and regeared after only a month. Hated it. Freeway on ramps gave me problems and don't even get me started with having to downshift at highway speeds in order to get more speed on overpasses. I went with 5.13s but I think 4.88s would be just as good. 150 rpm difference between the two
