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.

Don't put a 2.5 lift with the Sport stock tires, because your Jeep will look like a roller skate

i just ordered the teraflex 2.5 lift and all i have for now is the stock tires. i should be able to put some pictures up this weekend. you might as well just do it one piece at a time so when you have the money you dont have to go install everything all at once. thats just my opinion.

If you plan to keep the stock tires on there make sure you do not offroad with it or you will have problems with the swaybar link bolts hitting the rim because ther there is not enough offset you can fix this by putting on wheel spacers...but i always say do it right the first way and get some rims with the correct backspace for kmc xd rims it is -12 mm offset.
