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.

Thanks.

The doors are good and bad.

Good...
Nice and light so they are great for pulling off and throwing in the back. They keep the rain out fairly well out and the cold summer night air.

Bad...
Noise level is okay with top down but for some reason when the top is up and it is a little windy, they are very noisy at highway speeds. You can twist and bend them to fit better, but still noisy.

Purchased a painted "White" Hard top to replace the stock black. Wife's idea on this one, but I dig it. Currently adding some Crush color to the inside, along the lines of another one on this tread, but in different area. More changes coming as the money is available. Will keep you posted...
Kind of looks like a giant creamsicle with the white top on there.

I think it's a pretty cool look. Needs white wheels to match the top.

The offset alone is worth the upgrade, even with keeping stock rubi tires...
How are the tires doing on the wider rims? I was told by my dealer that you can't put stock tires on 9" wheels.

Default 9" Rims with Stock Tires

They ride fine. Commute is 35 miles round trip and today everything felt great. The wider stance from the offset and wider rim provide, what I can feel, would be described as more "stability". Not a "squishy" as before. Could be the side wall being more straight. Not sure.

I don't think Discount would have installed them if there was an issue. Time will tell. I only plan to run for a while like this anyhow. My buddy at work rode with -12 (4.5" offset) for 8 months before getting the 35" Kevlars. No issues.

I agree it gives it a totally different look. We have something else planned for the wheels.. but I do think old school white wagon wheels might look kinda cool. I do like the Crush and Black look, but everyone is running that and it kinda reminds me of Harley Davidson.

Rocjeepn, I really dig that white top! I have owned a couple of CJ's from the 70's and white soft tops where the only color that you could get back in the 60-70's. Very cool looking color combo brother!

Really nice rigs on here! The more I look through this thread, the more I kick myself for not being a Forum member sooner and getting the notice that this color would be coming out. If I had the $$$ I would trade up for a Crush 2DR 6spd in a heartbeat! On a positive note, I enjoy my '12 Flame Red and will wait patiently for an opportunity! Keep posting pics!
