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.

Mark,

Can you please come to Maine and watch my wife and three kids so I can come play in your world for a while?


Another great video.

HI Mark, how do you like the GY DuraTracs?

I am curious as to their durability when aired down. I have had decent success with the bfg MTs but for wet roads, they are not the best. I am thinking about a beefy AT like these or the Kelly safari's but want to make sure hey will not tear or puncture easy
Y when aired down 14-22 psi.

Thx for the great videos.

I have by no means wheeled as much as Mark, but I can tell you over the past 2.5 years off road with mine, I have not had one problem with them. I have over 30,000 miles on them and they are still going strong.

Yes, agree completely. When I replace these tires, it will be Duratracs again. Very pleased with them. If you mud, they aren't very good because they don't clear easily. But, for most anything else, and especially sand and snow, they are awesome. A bit of a compromise on wet roads, but if you want top-notch wet road performance, you'll have to stick with street treads.

Edit: Oh, and I run them aired down to about 15 PSI. A couple have some minor cuts in the sidewalls--watch my videos and you'll understand why--but they are still running strong after about 40-50K miles.

Finally got the chance to watch the video. Thanks again for sharing your experiences with the rest of us. Is it just me, or does anybody else think Mark sounds a little like the late Paul Harvey?

LOL. I never would have thought so, but I was also told that by a 2nd Lieutenant when I was on temporary duty in Aviano, IT flying missions over Bosnia.
