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.

? For expo. Trips/ minimal offroad. Whats the best bet 33-35 in tires. Are 35s really needed? I have 35s on now. But contemplating on a set of 33s for my new Wrangler.

Quick edit the hankook dynopro mt actually measure out to just a little over 34" and that's what I was looking for the compromise in-between!

Thanks! Work in progress I guess you can say! I was concerned also about the axles but I can't imagine anything happening to them doing expedition trips, rock crawling or dune jumping then maybe ! I have gussets that need to be installed so that should be done soon so I have a peace of mind!

I don't think you will break anything just driving and doing mild offroad, meaning no wild rock crawling. I travelled a couple thousand miles with my 35s and only damage was to my pockets.

I'm not planning to keep them. Got them used from a friend more to try them out and when they are gone I'll stick with the 33s. Jeep looks a lot nicer with the 35s but my pockets feel the difference. ;-)
