Sorry it’s taking me so long to post pictures. I’m working right now but I ran out and took one picture for you guys. I’ll take more detailed pictures as soon as I can and post them. I’ve had them mounted now for a couple of days and I love them and the way the jeep is riding. The wheels look great and the tires have not rubbed at all on the road. I do expect them to rub on heavy wheeling but my trail rides are some what tame. I have to get back to work but I’ll post more pictures and comments shortly.

Crown, your out of the preverbial doghouse with all of us waiting in the wings for the pics. It looks awesome! I can't wait until mine get here, jeep and wheels this week. Same combo as yours. Did I read correctly that you are running the 33's with NO lift? Any rubbing issues at all on normal on road bumps?
Thanks and we look forward to more pics!

I'm running Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ 33x12.5 on the stock suspension. So far they have not rubbed at all.

Crown,
That's nice to hear because I had read some other threads about issues rubbing when running 33's and no lift. Especially at full turn!

Congrats again....

Now now TEV, I remember your thread last week about us AEV wheel guys! JK
I know you liked the other ones but this pic just confirms my choice in wheels. If all goes well I'll have a jeep with lift wheels and tires this weekend. There's lots of stars to line up but i got a slight chance!
Great rig Crown!!
