Notices
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.

This should be illegal.

Those tires are bad enough on a JK but A JKU is to much

They're stock tires... I don't quite get the illegal part. I ran those for a couple of months on mine before the funds built back up lol

you know, I used to hate those rims. My 07 came with them, cause I wanted a basic jeep. It wasn't my daily driver, I just wanted something to get out when the Audi A4 quattro couldn't make it. I got a set of 17" takeoffs from ebay.

Anyway, now I've seen bigger tires on those same rims, and I think they look sweet IMHO.

My dad ran those tires on our JK for almost five years before I turned 16 an instantly went bigger. Best decision ever.

It may look ridiculous but ultimately it is functional. Bottomline most manufacturers offer striped down models becasue alot of people either... don't care about looks and just want function at cheapest price or are planning on upgrading and don't want to pay for something they will take off. Just saying....don't judge a book by its cover.

yeah they are small.... but very capable. A stock bare bones Jeep is more offroad capable than alot of "offroad" edition Pickups and SUV's.




But yes, they do look better with bigger tires/wheels.

I studied the picture before reading the post, just to see if I could see something the owner added that some may consider stupid or should be illegal.
I came up with nothing. Even after reading the post, I couldn't see the point.

I've got those on my JK. I put a set of BFG rugged trails and painted mine black and I'm happy with them for now I get compliments on them everywhere surprisingly.
