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.

35" tires and wheels arrived the same night as the JK, but UPS delivery is late in the day in my area (730pm) and I haven't had the time or good weather to put them on yet. Hope to tomorrow afternoon.

Looks great, I would have ordered the matching color hardtop in that color as well. Ended up getting a Crucsh Rubi with black top/fenders, all that orange would have been an overload. What lift are you going with for the 35's? Loof forward to more pics. Oh the only reason I didn't go with this color is we have had cars in a similar from 1991 to present. Wanted a new splash of color added to the garage!

I've had a loooong run of black vehicles so this is a nice change.

Put the 35s on last night. Rub on the front bumper and air dam when turning moderately so that will be fixed soon.

Trimmed the bumper back but still rubbing on something, can't see it when I turn the wheel and get out and look - but when rolling slow and turning sharp, maybe still a piece of the factory airdam.

It was the airdam, just went ahead and removed it. MPG already sucks with the 35s doubt the airdam is making a huge difference now haha

Trimmed the stock bumper more to install the end caps when they arrived. Also removed the silver Sahara bumper cover. Installed a RR light bar and Warn lights that have the wireless switch. Light install was pretty easy, finding room to mount the relay and control box took over an hour and removing the battery and the battery holder.

Waiting for my Yakima rack and basket and TF leveling kit to install next.
