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.

I have 285 bfg km2's with 4.5 back spacing and a 3/4" puck in the front spring.

Everything is fine until you off road, I went thought a rut that stuffed the tire right up into the fender. No damage but that was the novice trail.

Had 285’s on stock rims and only had rubbing at FULL turn... Totally not an issue

Proof of the stuffing - 285/70/17 with a 3/4" puck in front.

This is not flexed much at all and the rear rubs l and I was going very slow over a slight ditch at a local park.

I need more lift.

Thanks guys. Looks like I'm gonna try the 285's and then the leveling kit later. I don't do much off roading so I will deal with the rubbing for a little bit.
