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.

New wheels on today!

Default New wheels on today!

MB72 with 33" Wrangler Duratracs

Can't lift it as long as I live in this building or I'll scrape the garage.

Same setup I plan to go with. Those 15s or 16s? Hard to tell from the pics. Nevermind, just saw your other post where you confirmed 15s. Nice.

I just took it out on the highway for the first time. It rode smoothly, no shaking. I was getting 17mpg according to my meter. It's definitely slower than before, but I guess that's normal. I had no idea what to expect though, my previous cars have all been sports cars so I'm used to making things faster, not slower (but far more badass). In any case I love them and would recommend them to anyone!

Nice, that's about the same setup I think/hope I've decided on. I heard 15's are hard to balance so on the fence about 16 or 15's.

Looks awesome! What backspacing and/or spacers did you go with?
