I like that green 2dr JK with with 20s and XDs

I think one of the major problems here is that not everyone wheels their Jeeps...and not all of us understand that!!

If I buy a Jeep doesn't mean that I have to wheel it... the JKs are more civilized... you can actually drive them every day... not like TJs

Don't give people shit about it if you don't like it! If I never wheel my JK i'll put a 24" wheel on it! because it will never see dirt...

the purpose of bigger tires are clearance and side wall.. along with floatation..

if you don't need any of the above... then put whatever tire and wheel combination you want...

Good luck finding 20" Rockstars, I have been waiting on them since December...yo!! (That's Jeep ghetto slang since they are so gangsta to all you uber cool 15" wheel rockin Jeepers!!!)

All joking aside, they have been on b.o. for 6 months and are suppose to be on the market sometime this month. I have ordered a set from a place, who knows if i will ever get them!!

I think I made some good points...

and I clearly made the point that I am not an know it all when I made the mistake on wheel sizes for the sahara...

I am not saying that 20's on 35's is unstoppable and that its better then 15's on 35's or any other combination... I am just trying to bring up some ideas that can show you that its not as pathetic as your all making it seem...

people are saying 20's are only good on 40's or above... with that logic then the jeeps should start with 13 inch wheels or something hahahaha

what it all comes down to is... to each their own...
if you dont like it then give some solid reasons why, or open someones eyes with some ideas that might show them they might want to try something else....

telling people that what they like is stupid or wack or whatever without giving any real reason why "ohh your a hummer wana be" is just lame...

If you dont want to respond to my points because you think they have no valor then fine... but dont tell me I am a know it all... I am clearly not and if your too lazy to prove your side of things thats not grounds to dismiss it as me being a know it all, its just you been lazy...


Just for the record, I completely agree!

I have 33's on 18's, about the same side-wall as 35's on 20's. I see nothing wrong with it and if it makes you happy, do it. If you driving a 2 door, I certainly wouldn't take a hummer comment from someone driving a 4 door! Never seen a 2 door hummer! However I have seen many 4 door hummers either blacked out or chromed up or lifted etc. Hahahaha

Also, be sure to run Nitto Mud Grapplers, they would look great on 20's I believe Camp has put Mud Grapplers on 20's before and they looked awsome!

you completely missed my point of the first post, instead of asking what i meant, You posted about comparing apples to oranges..

so why bother explaining?? Besides, You already have your mind made up. I never onced said he should or shouldnt install 20's with 35's.

I have big blingy 18" wheels on my JK. The girls love them. Its all good, cause I don't wheel. Mall crawl baby.


oops... wrong photo!!!! I meant this:




Like said above... big wheels are just not acceptable on the trail!!! The sidewalls are much to tiny unless you have 54" tires. You must run 15s unless you mall crawl like me.
