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.

Default Duratracs Installed today! Jeep got insulted.....

Got my 285/70/17 duratracs today! I will post pics tomorrow because it's too dark out, but so far.....Love them!
I do have a bad/ funny story to tell about the install....

The tech finishes mounting up the tires on the jeep, backs it off the lift and brings me the keys. (this is where the story goes south) The tech then says this to me...

"it looks real good, looks like a hummer." I replied "excuse me?! Don't ever ever tell a jeep owner that his wrangler looks like a hummer, I should smack you."

I don't think he got the joke about my smacking him, he gave me a funny look and walked away, another customer next to me just started laughing.

The tires really do change to whole look of the jeep, I couldn't be happier....even with the hummer insult.
Before




AFTER!

Haha one time I was in my jeep with my mom and we passed an H3 and she said " hey look there is a car just like yours!"

I didn't talk to her for the rest of the 3 hour trip , not only did she say a hummer looks like my jeep but she called my jeep a CAR!

My dad sat in the back seat and just replied to comment by saying ..." Oooohh, should not have said that."

Hummers.... Gross
