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.

Anyone running these tires? My Federals are wearing down rather quickly now and i am beggining the tire search. Anyone have any pics with these tires on a JK? The size I am looking at will be 33X11.5X16

I have them on my F150 in 35x12.50-18, and on my wife's JK in 285-75-16. We both love them. I've got about 25,000 miles on the ones on my truck and they still have a little over half the thread left. They perform awesome in the mud and on general trail riding. We haven't had them on rocks so I comment on their abilities there. On the road they handle very well, no hydroplaning issues, and they aren't too loud. Mine are starting to get louder the more they wear which is fine with me, I like the noise they make. I definitely won't hesitate to get them again once this set wears out.

May I ask about what the set on your wife's JK cost?

A set of 5 was around $1,300 including mounting, balancing, and alignment. The guy give me a $100 discount though because I had brought him some new business to a new shop and this was my second set of these in a 3 week period. I don't know if you have them where you are, but I got them at Tire Discounters here in Lexington.

I have Kuhmo AT 78's on my JK and have been very happy with overall traction and wear over the last 15K miles.

Although they are not the MT's, I have been very happy with the Kuhmo quality and the price
