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.

BTW, Cupping and other tire wear issues is caused by suspension problems and bad alignment. ANY tire will get these problems if the front end isn't right. Also, 90% of the time cupping is front bad or incorrect shocks.
Or if your toe-in is off even just a little say 1/4 of an inch that'll cup your tires damn fast.

Very true... But I have found many keep stock shocks when lifting and they've been tearing up their tires

New set of 37 mtrs. 1 of 5 giving me balancing (actually rounding) problems. I started having regrets but once got it right they are superior for quiet and killer in mud and rocks.

If you don't have access to hunter road force balancer, get the bfgs. If you do, consider going for it! With some patience.
