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.

My build so far

Default My build so far

Here is my '08 Rubicon Unlimited so far. I've had it for a month, and I spent 17 days out of that time at work on the North Slope of AK, so I've been busy! Did all the mods myself, with help on the lift from rdnhijkstyle. (Big thanks!) Couldn't have gotten this far without the write-ups from this forum and a great deal from Dave at Northridge! I was able to get down to Moab for the JK Jam and a little wheelin', and had a great time. Next, its a drive up the Al-Can highway next month for a tour of Alaska.
Most of these shots were taken around Moab - sorry for the poser shots, but not many chances yet to get action pics.






A few from Top Of The World in Moab








A couple flex shots at the grocery store today

I am jealous of your ride.

The wheels look good in that combo. What made you decide to go 13.5 width instead of 12.5 for the tires. I like the look but most of what I have seen in the 12.5.

Again, jeep looks awesome.

Thanks!

As far as 13.5 vs. 12.5 width tires, I got a great deal from another forum member who was looking to go back to stock, so I ended up with his wheel/tire combo. I probably would have gone with a 12.5 Mud Terrain and 17" rims otherwise, but I got these in exchange for a set of stockers and less cash than the rims alone would have cost! If you are patient and watch the for sale section of the forum religiously, you can get some amazing deals!
