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.

You say you should have stopped with 295s? Why do you say that? MPGs not great on 37s?

Might as well add mine to the collection. 295/70/17 Toyo MT's on a Teraflex Leveling Kit w/ Spidertrax wheel spacers.



And comparing it to the stock Rubi tire:

Thanks. The Leveling Kit is from Teraflex. Here's their description:

This leveling kit adds 2" to the front and 1" to the rear, effectively leveling the 2 or 4 door's factory rake stance. The kit comes with front sway bar links. You can run a 33-34" tall tire with this kit. If you prefer to run the factory wheels, you may need wheel spacers for proper clearance. Fits 2007+ newer Wrangler and Unlimited models.

Here's the link to the product on the Northridge site:

Basically, its an inexpensive spacer lift option to run up to a 34" tire (without messing around with any other parts on your JK that can happen when you start to lift higher). Works great!

JKs come from the factory with a rake to the front. A leveling kit consists of coil spacers or springs that bring the front to be level with the rear while at the same time raising both a bit.

Here is the TeraFlex spacer leveling kit and here is the coil spring version.

On edit: Looks like Merlin beat me to it. lol

Thanks guys. Just wondering, why does the JK have a rake? Must be for some reason
Also, are the springs a better solution vs the spacers?
