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.

Default Still waiting...

I have my new tires, but still waiting for my wheels... I hate waiting! I had ordered some black Hoss HD's, but they are on national backorder, so I switched to a set of American Racing Predators, and I'm hoping they will show up tomorrow. The tires are Cooper STT (285/75) and the wheels are 16x8. I'll post some pics when I get them on.

You can at least rub the rubber and smell the tires when you want. Nice tires. They'll do ya good.

I'm currently in S.Korea. Everything I order to here, I end up waiting at least 2-3 weeks for...sometimes months

WAITING FOR YOUR NEW PARTS TO SHOW UP SUCKS!!!!!!

I'm from the old school... if I need to use my spare I will match diameters by adjusting air pressure. For temporary use, this works fine.

I will only be using the 285s for trail rides; I will use my set of Sahara stockers for commuting. I also still have my Rubi wheels and tires...

I was in you boat till I found a guy at Wheel Pro's on ebay and he got mine to me in less than a week. Call around the Hoss is available, and never settle for any MOD get what you want and love it.
