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.

Has to be a record!

Well this mourning on my way to work. I hear a noise that seems pretty familiar and consistent with a flat tire. So I pull off to the side of the road and yup flat tire my car had 400 miles on it and all ready 1 tire down. Here's the aftermath of what I found.

Our local Discount Tire will plug our tires for free - can't that be fixed?

I didn't even drive my Jeep off the lot with stock tires on it. Mind you, I got the X so the stock tires were junk anyway. I've always had problems with stock tires on all my vehicles. My car (yes, I also drive a car) came with Pirelli tires on it and I've replaced 3 of them in 30000 kms. I hate when that happens!

PS - The Hankook Dynapro MT's I put on the Jeep run over all kinds of stuff and no problems yet!
