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.

Default Goodyear Duratracs

Now I’m shopping for a new set of wheels!!!

I’m considering the Goodyear Duratracs 285/70R17 (Got a really good price on them). I wanted the Liquid Metal Rhino on www.discounttire.com/dtcs/home.do for my rims but I’m not able to find a dealer for them in Canada and I’m afraid that custom will kill the deal!! So I’m now considering the UltraWheels BlackThunder. (see att.)

Default Bushwacker Painted Fender Flares

Ok it's not been a week that I have my new mods and I got pull over! Mainly because of my tinted windows! I think there reinforcing the law for front tinted windows because of used of cell phone while driving! So anyways, I got my first ticket for tinted windows, I always had my windows tinted on my cars and been driving for 20 years!!

I also got a warning for my tires, because they stick out an inch and a half… So I am considering the “Bushwacker Painted Fender Flares” They seem nice, but still expensive for now!! Give me your input? Did some of you get them installed? Are they any good, do they chip easily? Do you think it’s going to look good?
Someone on the forum also told me about black rubber that go’s under the original fender for less than 100$ I like to see a picture of those? Not sure if it looks good!

Here's a yellow JK that I found on the web with Bushwacker flares
