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.

Just installed new shoes on my 2011 Rubicon... debating whether or not to do a leveling kit with a bumper and winch...

Looks great. I'd say a leveling kit would look perfect. IMO

Looks good, couple questions.

Can you take a shot showing how much the tires stick out of the flares?
And/Or just tell use how far they stick out.
How does it ride (road noise and road feel) with those load rated tires?

Looks GREAT. Those are by far my favorite rims out there.

I like that you went with AT's too.. would love to hear your thoughts on them - in reference to the post above.

Looks strangely familiar, great wheels and great tires. Good looking jeep!

The tires stick out about 1/4 to 1/2" I think, I'd have to go out and look. It's not bad at all, unless you live in a particularly picky state or tow about such things.

Also note that mine has the TF leveling kit plus 1/2" spacers up front as I have since put a steel bumper on nice that picture. It sits very nicely now.
