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.

I don't think they look small. Be very versitle when you start krawling and what lift you got? they might tuck a little


btw congrats on the purchase! you'll be very happy!!

I'm sorry to say they actually do, but it could be the angle of the photo. The front looks worse then the rear.

Default Thanks

Thanks I appreciate the responses. I feel they are a little small, but I was hesitant to go bigger, due to tread 'width" with snow coming soon. it's a 2" lift that the dealer actually offered with no change to my warrantee.
Actually, I'd like the tire to fill the wheel wells a bit more. Anyway, I'm trading in my 2000 TJ which i poured alot into aftermarket..so this time I went with having the big stuff done first! I couldn't afford the Rubi, but don't really need it..I guess.
This is my first green vehicle, since I've always bought black..but I love it.
I'm also having rock rails installed, as well as a custom sub..all through the dealer.
Now's the time! Good deals! It also has the 17" wheels, high end seats, Sirius radio, cd etc..I may still go to a 305 tire, don't know yet..I pick it up Monday.
Thanks again for the comments..
