Default Name those mods

I've seen this jeep in several magazines. I really love the way it looks. For some reason it just looks more stout to me than a stock Rubicon.

What does it have done to it? The only thing that stands out are the fenders. But what else?

the tires look a bit bigger than stock, especially in the rear?

Looks like a good photoshop of some flares on a stock Rubicon. The tires were probably enlarged to make it look "tough."

Definitely a photochop. Look at the wells behind the tires and under the flares. You can't see ANY definition. They just colored it in after they enlarged the tires/rims. If those tires/rims were real, they would only bash the hell out of the body and/or suspension anyway. Looks don't get you flexing room baby.

Months ago I sent an email to the folks at Quadratec and asked them to tell me what was done to this because I liked the look too. I even attached the photo. I never heard a word.

Hah! Hah!

Look at the size of the wheel and tire in the back compared to the one in the front. If this was a real picture, the one in front would appear larger. That's not the case though.

It's not even a good fake.
