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 new tires on my 2010 sahara!!

I told everyone i would post pics of my new tires after i got them installed today!! ok first off these tacky 255 70 18inch bridgestone duellers that come on saharas r junnnk, therefore i installed a one size bigger 265 70 18 more aggressive but too aggressive firestone destination at, these tires rock, they are the best by farrrrrr, and yes these 265's fill the wheel wells out just perfect and not overkill, if you go any bigger its also going to kill the the power on these little 6 cyls, so please let me know what everyone thinks of my new rubbers!!! cant wait to hear comments.. thanx.. you can find the pictures under "my project jk" members gallery.. mark16830

I haven't had any experience with them, but from what I read about them, they seem about literally one of the best all around tires you can get with really good tration in snow and ice. Ice is where mud tires usually don't do so well
