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.

130 x 52 weeks = ~6700-7000 miles (say you add in vacations, etc)

Do you all use your JKUs with these size of tires with this amount of frequency, or is it more a weekender only vehicle?

Thanks
Go with 37's! Only reason I went with 35's is because I put about 360-400 miles a week on it.

I have 93,000 on an 07. Once you get it dialed in ( air pressure ) I feel they drive better. Maybe a little worse on off ramps do to side wall flex but mine rides much smoother.
Thank you for your service

It was a little disappointing for me when I dropped the $1000.00 bucks for 5:38's and install.
It did help, but it did not improve the power like I had hoped. Damn minivan engine!

I got my 5:13s in from northridge. I'm waiting to install till I get time. After wheeling all weekend with factory 4:10 I thought it still had plenty of power. I did all I wanted and more. I just hope for a slight emprovment on the highway. I can run in od with no hills or wind but it'd be nice to pull hills and not have to run od off with wind.

I'm on 4.10s right now and i can live with it. Have not wheeled though. Gotta trim some more and get spacers. I'm not a speed or acceleration freak though. Have another car and motorcycles for that. Around town it's one and on highway I turn OD off in traffic and on if traffic is steady.

Claws got me through everything I did (guy that picked them up said they got stuck in 1ft of snow). I never tried snow.

These Toyos are more comfortable on road. A lot more. Have not been offroad yet but eager to see how they handle compared to my old Claws.

MT is making a 37" claw in July/Aug timeframe of this year.

How bad do the Toyos rub the frame/control arms with those Level 8 wheels?
