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.

Lets see em, 2 doors only!!!

Just a suggestion, but you can find someone who upgraded their tires and they'll often sell them to you way cheap

The ones you have are the smallest ones I've ever seen come on a jeep from the factory...

Earlier this year a father/son were in front of me at a jeep Jamboree and they were getting stuck everywhere with those same tires

When I bought my jeep I had the same tires (did not go rubicon bc I was going to fully build) and agree 100%. You can have at much lift as you want, but will drag those axles over everything with those super small tires from the factory.

Matt and green, I am embarrassed by these wheels. I plan to just do rubicon take offs when possible. I spent the budget on just getting the Jeep. It's such a great ride, but I may have to wait a while unless someone out there feels sorry for me and wants to give me a great deal on a new setup. Ha. Thanks for the input guys.

Just watch Craig's list and see if you can find a local jeep/4x4 club or even a shop that specializes in this

I felt bad that I was responding too harshly to your first post!

Venting at Jeep inc. for putting on those tires and calling it trail rated

2012 JK Sport ... Still Stock with 16" Steelies & 29" Street Tires. Too much of a tightwad to replace tires before they wear out. Will stick with stock steelies and go with Duratracs but no bigger than 285/75r16 (may stay as small as 265/75r16) because I'm too old and worn out to climb up any higher than that. Wishing I had a Jeep when I was younger and in better shape!

I won't be attempting Morrison Jeep Trail or be Mud Bogging my JK, but I've already been places and done things in my Jeep I would have never imagined. I'm envious of those with the bigger setups, but a man has got to know his limitations. I've got way too many of 'em!

No worries Matt, didn't take it personal. I'm with you on nit understanding how Jeep can put these tires on any wrangler. Thanks for looking out
