Default My New Wheels and 35" KM2's
Got my wheels and tires in from Discount Tire Direct yesterday. Mounted them last night and had my alignment done this morning. Finally feels like a big boy JK. I also think I may have the biggest RHD mail delivery JK out there. Thanks DTD! Thanks to Grandpa for helping me mount the tires even though he ruined a lug by not using the one supplied with the gorilla lugs. Can you send me one DTD???

Stock 3.73's with superchip 93 tune. I was running 16 inch steel wheels and 32 inch nittos so I think the change might have been a wash on the weight because of the difference in wheel weight. I don't notice any negative impact on acceleration yet. I try not to think about MPG's so I don't know how much of a difference that will be.

Here is the thread from when I decided to do the decals. Some others followed suit and the thread has pics of the decal and similar decals on a variety of colors. https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/show...enegade-Decals!

Thanks! I wanted to go this big from the start, but you know I actually deliver mail out of this thing still so I've gone at it gradually to see how it went reaching the boxes each step up. Do you know of anybody that might want my old rims and tires? I posted them in the for sale forum. Hey, here's some quick pics with the top and doors off new wheel n tires
