pics of Rubicon wheels/tires on a Sahara?
Just bought an 09 Unlimited Sahara and not sure if I'm ready to spend $1,500 on tires. Just wondered what the 32" MT's on Rubicon wheels would like like on a Sahara. Post pics if you're out there. Thanks.

I'm running the BFG-KM's (same as on the Rubi) but on the 17" X rims. Frankly I think it looks pretty much like it does on a Rubicon. Sorry I don't have pics here at work.

I don't have a camera with me but they look just like they do on a Rubi. It's the same vehicle. Drive to your dealership and look at the Rubicons - it looks the same. It looks great on mine (just like a Rubicon). Or go to google.com images of Jeep Rubicon and you'll get hundreds of pictures. Even Jeep.com has them.
OH yeah - welcome to the group.

Dude - if you're not ready to spend the dough, definitely take this route. The tires look 10x better than your stock and will perform far better offroad as well. Once you decide to spend $ on tires, you will get the bug and then you're screwed.
I went through the same thought process and saw several sets of very new Rubicon MT's for sale in the $500 range including the rims on Craigslist. You can also check these forums. Of course I convinced myself I needed 33's, then I needed rims, then a lift to fit it all better, then a new bumper, etc.. etc.. and so on and so on. Now I'm checking out rock rails and we don't even have rocks in FL.
