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 am on the fence about getting Falken Wildpeaks for my JKU in 35x1250/17s. I am just not sure about the looks of these tires. Can you guys post some pics of your jks with these tires? any size is fine. Thanks

Here are my 285/75/16 Rocky Mountain ATS. Exact same as Wild Peak, but only offered through Discount Tire. Sorry for the shitty cell pics. IMO, the tires look much better in person. Very happy with them.

Yeah, they are heavy. I am amazed at the difference in weight between the 285s vs. the 315s. It's like 17 lbs. per tire. That's 85 lbs. of extra weight with all 5 tires. Even the 295s are 13 lbs. heavier. Why is that?

I was looking at these in a 35x12.5x15 and they're like 20lbs heavier vs. BF all terrians.

Yeah, these aren't light tires. My setup, 285/75/16 Rocky Mountains on 16x8.5 Strike 5s, rings in at 86 lbs.
