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.

Wasn't mounted yet, nothing looks worse than someone with aftermarket wheels /big tires and a stock spare on the back. Looks tacky and is USELESS! Lol

Are you using wheel spacers with this? I am liking this idea for my girls '12 that will never see any offroad action. How does it track going down the road with the stock steering stabilizer?

No spacers, The rims have 4.5" of back spacing, feels a little loose going down the road. I would recommend at least a leveling kit though, if you hit a good bump, you will rub the fenders with stock suspension.

Thanks for the info..this is the route I am now leaning. I like the lifts, but I also like the look of the wheel well filled up.

35s, wheel spacers, no lift. A little rubbing bouncing around on back roads. Rides a lot better.

Went to the states Its probably worth the trip from London. The trail grapplers were almost $200 more per tire in Ontario. Got them from discount tire. Great customer service
