wind buffeting question for JKU owners

Is buffeting in front windows lessened with rear windows open?

That issue is best solved with removal of the top and doors

I don't think the buffetting is terrible with just the front driver's window down, but it does seem to improve the more windows are open, even if just partially.

I bought a set of window visors. They help with a lot of issues. I don't love how they look but they keep rain out, lessen wind noise....

Not an issue if you leave the rear glass open either.

I've found that front passenger side and rear drivers side open works well without buffetting.

Why are you getting buffeting? Is this a soft top thing? I don't have it with my hard too.
