Yeah, I was impressed with what I could do with just the BB and stock wheels/tires. Nothing too crazy, but still some good flexin. There are more pics here.

From the pictures it doesn't look so bad... I have the Goodyear Wrangler A/T's though.. not quite as mean looking as the Rubi BFG's. In any case, thanks for the great responses guys.

Well... yeah. That was always the plan. But I actually waited far longer than I had originally intended to because of how well things were working out with the 32's. I really wasn't bothered by them-- but don't get me wrong, I love my 35's.

And you are right about the a/t vs, m/t-- it will not look quite as good with the a/t's. But you can always geta set of Rubi hand-me-downs for a good price. That's what I did.

Here's mine with the stock Sahara 32" tires. Sorry just a poser shot, don't really have any good trail pics that show it from the side.

Here's my Sahara with the TF BB and the factory 32's on 18s. I like the way it looks. Just a driveway shot. Like others, 33's coming when budget allows.

Since last September until this week I was running a 2" BB with the 32" SRA's, it didn't look bad and actually suprised me how well they they performed off road, but I think it definetly looks better now with the more agressive 33's.




Here I actually had to back down the trail to pull the stuck Rubicon out.

That's because it is. It is either 10B or 10C, you can see Rock Creek in the backgound through the trees.
