Yeah that's the bad thing. But as I passed him rollin on my 33s I made sure I didn't even turn my head. I'm surprised the liscense plate didn't read "WITEY" or "GNGSTA". LOL!

It would be even better if we were near a muddy ditch. Rubicon or not he would simply spin those dubs! Not sure if I would pull him out or not. If I did it wouldn't be until most of the white was covered or wheels were buried. Plus I would make him crawl through the muck to get his end of the strap. It's not worth me getting muddy.

I thought I was going to be sick when I saw it and it got worse once I noticed it was a RUBICON. Why spend the extra cash only to turn it into this! Even the hardtop, bumpers, and wheels were painted to match. Truly a sad day in the JK world.

Dude I saw this guy rollin by the other day
My wife says eeeewwwww
and I threw up in my mouth a little

Personnaly, I think that this Jeep is kitsch.
But this Jeeper is also a member of our great family. That's why I respect his choice, and if I see him on the road, I will wave him with a smile

Its his Jeep, and that is what makes these so much fun. It lets him do what he wants to do, and it seems he wants to use it to project that image. Doesnt bother me, although I have no use for a Jeep with painted Rock sliders.

I can judge you guys too.

"OMGG What color lug nuts should I get so they match with my rims"

Probably spend more time shopping for the right color light covers than women do for purses.

Real jeeps don't care, they are tanks, with bullet holes in em, and dent marks on the hood, from like, enemy parachuters landing on it, and you wack em with a shovel. They go through wars!!! Not through car washes.

Maybe this guy's jeep is made for the arctic, so he can hunt polar bears and be camouflaged, and he's only running those tires to save gas mileage. Or maybe he just wants an all white jeep, maybe he's in the KKK.

My point is, before you judge people for their sense of aesthetic and what they do to their vehicles, maybe you should be certain that yours isn't in the same boat and some old man from WWII isn't going to laugh at you for being a pansy.
VERY GOOD POST

Honestly I think it looks great other than the wheels/tyres.

The more people that do this sort of thing, the more "offroad virgin" Jeeps & parts that will be available in 5-10 years time
