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.

Which Wheels???

I was choosing between 7189 and 8179 procomps. 8179s are a gloss finish powder coat and the 7189s are a matte finish they call cast blast. I chose the 7189s. More pictures in my.project.jk

Default heres my set up

here is what I'm running, Eagle 185 wheels 17x10 and M/T MTZ tires. It is the only setup like this I have seen so far, the wheels were just released, where the procomps have been out for awhile and every one has them. The tires are really quite on the highway and perform well as you can see at this link, https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/jk-trails-tales-71/memorial-day-rock-crawl-9159/
And don't howl and slap asphalt hard like the nitto x terrains do (had em on my 05 ram quad cab diesel, wouldn't think of putting them on something as light as a jeep) Just my $.02
Here is a pic of the setup. Jon

I bought my 17x9 7189s from a local shop for $155 each. 4 wheel parts had them listed for $184 but had them listed in their last magazine for $147.99. They said they would honor the $147 price. I'll see if I can find the magazine on wednesday and post
