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.

Is this a Jeep No No?

It looks like it protects the spare from the elements? Unless it’s open on the other side
I think I recall reading in an earlier post on the same subject that it's perfectly acceptable.
However, the caveat was for it to be considered OK it should have a scene from Star Wars
airbrushed on it. Preferably a scene from A New Hope or Empire Strikes Back. (none of that
new old crap) You might consider a Chewbacha / Han Solo scene as I think that would look
stunning on mango and less common then the Luke, Laura Vader thing.

Seriously, do what YOU want. If someone has issue because of a tire cover then they aren't worth
worrying about. Period.

Nah not Star Wars - a big smiley face painted on it maybe.
I like to leave the big olde BFG KM2 uncovered - seems to keep tailgaters back some when they think the tire will do more damage to them.

Spare tire covers scream 'stock' or 'owner was too poor to buy a full set of wheel/tires.'

To each his own, do what you want to do. For me, I love my wheels and tires, and I want the guy sitting behind me in traffic to have something cool to look at.

Plus, my spare gets rotated into action, giving me 20% more milage before I have to replace them. Why protect the one tire you may never use?

But if you're going to do it, I would have an air brush artist paint three wolves and a moon on it.
