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.

Anyone running flats w/35s? Need opinions please.

Default Anyone running flats w/35s? Need opinions please.

I've poked around and haven't found exactly what I'm after by way of my query, so here goes...

Anyone running either cut OE flares or aftermarket flats with a mild lift and 35s? If so, could you post a photo please?

I'm on ~3" lift via OME springs and run 35 inch MTRs. I've contemplated going to aftermarket flat fenders and reduced bump stops for more up-travel, but worry about the aesthetic. Does 3" lift + flats sort of necessitate 37s to get the "right" look?

4 Wheel Drive & Sport Utility Magazine did a yellow 2-door with 3.5" AEV lift, 35s and flat fenders awhile back. I'm on the fence. Too tall for flats and 35s or not?

Sorry for the crappy Iphone pic....
35's on RC BB and chopped fenders. Factory ride with plenty of clearance, and budget friendly.

On my previous Unlimited Rubicon,I had a 3" teraflex lift and Xenon flat fenders. I ran both 35's and 37's ,they both looked good. I know what you mean by not enough fender to tire clearance, the 37's filled the fenders as much as I like. Good luck with your decision.
