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.

What was done to your JK this week?

Over the weekend I finally replaced my stock original Bridgestones (p255/70r18) on my 2009 Jeep Sahara Unlimited. They lasted 115,000 kms (71K miles), but I wanted something more agressive. I was going to get Nitto Terras but I ended up getting General Grabber AT2 (p275/65r18) for $500 less. The Grabbers seem like a good tire, looks good and feels good so far, no rubbing on the wider tire yet. I am looking forward to seeing if the severe snow symbol actually applies!

Well I haven't done anything physically to my jeep but I've ordered lots of stuff. Ordered 5 Tread Wright 315/70R17s, Rough Country 2.5" spacer lift (arrived today), Quadratec trailer hitch, and KC A-pillar brackets. Now I gotta find time to put it all on.

Did you put these on the stock rims and no lift? Have you measured your clearances (US measurements)? How many miles have you driven on them so far, any rough terrain? I'm look for a more aggressive tire for me totally stock 2013 Sahara Unlimited.

Well, I never posted from when I did do things to my jeep. Here it goes: Started with a fully loaded 2012 Rubicon 4 dr, auto, leather, Sahara tan (which was hard to find, even in July of 2011)

Method racing Fat Five wheels, 17x8.5, Full Traction SRS 3" with Fox 2.0 shocks and steering stabilizer. Terraflex exhaust extensions, rampage rear wheel carrier, delta 3rd brake light, Nitto Trail Grapplers 35x12.5x17, M.O.R.E. retractable steps on all 4 doors, Synergy steering stabilizer relocation brackets at each end, Smittybilt cargo carrier on the tailgate, Glock pistol grip mounted on the center console, gun safe under the driver seat.. I think that's it...........for now.

Cut it off. Don't really need it, and it was all smashed in anyway. Looks better without it I think.
