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 Finally my 15" wheels w/ 35's mounted show up today!

Man I can't wait to join the 15" Wheel club, black wheel club and the 35" tire club all in the same day.

So I got my wheels and tires and just noticed that I ordered 15x8's instead of the 15x10's that I really wanted.
Oh well....I think it would be more of a hassle to return them than to just love them as they are.
Here is a blurry preview. Will post pics after install.

15x8 Pro Comp 1069 3.75bs on 33x12.50x15 KM2's

I had no clearance issues nor did I need spacers. all weights on the inside of the wheel . You just need the flat 1/4oz weights and most should fit without issue.

I have shimmy between 45-55mph and thought that it may be a balancing issue but I think it's turning out to be a worn suspension part. I am awaiting an answer from the shop. Aside from that I had no clearance issues at all. I had room the spare with the caliper meeting the wheel

Are those the center caps from stock steelies?

I have the Rock Krawler tie rod with Crown ends and it works fine with my wheels. The backspacing is important as mine are 3.75 and clear the tie rod with no problem. I know the currie rods don't fit.
