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.

Show me your 20's....

I agree about the side wall but that's a bit exaggerated don't you think. A sports car really. It's shaped like a brick lol. I don't think I've ever seen a square Indy car.

I like the 10 inch sidewall rule.

tire size - (10" sidewall x 2) =appropriate rim size

Translation, if your going to run a 38" tire, stick to an 18" rim. If you are running a 37", stick to a 17" rim. Maintain a 10" sidewall on your wheels. This ensures there is enough sidewall to provide adequate grip and wheel protection.


: Disclaimer : I made up this rule, but I like it and I am going to keep using it..

Made up or not it seems logical. I like it.
