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.

So I thought GREAT nothing broke..... Until I cleaned off the mud!

That could more than likely be repaired by a rim shop.

Were you muddin' or just crossing a puddle?

Ouch!! That one hurts. I agree with using it as a spare, for now.

Makes $75 steel wheels seem even better now!

wow man...that sucks....all four of my Pintlers have some serious scratches on the outer lip, but never thought it would crack like that.....I do mostly rock crawling, and have hit a few things, but never had that happen......do you remember hitting something hard?

Could call AEV, but I wouldn't count on them to do anything , but at least try good luck

I agree about the rim shop being able to repair that one.
