Rock rails. Whether your offroading or not I can tell ya from experience that those lugs on your 35s are going to do a number on your doors and hinges with debris if you dont . :-)

If you are so compelled , the first thing you need is protection , like skid plating , bumpers , winch , tow hooks , and to learn how to wheel . Don't get 18" rims , they don't help at all with wheeling , and most real wheelers will just make fun of you anyway for it. Do you know the difference in price for a say , 35" tire in a 18" rim compared to the same tire in a 17" rim? I didn't think so , so i'll tell you , about 50 bucks a tire . And what for , so you can look cool? It's not cool with wheelers , and there is a reason for that , and I am sure you don't know what it is. It's because you need a certain amount of sidewall flex when you go offroad , especially when you air down , you want the tire to bite , but don't want you rims to get damaged on rocks. I could go on and on but I just get tired of nubees thinking of mods they need on there new jeep when they haven't even wheeled it yet , again let a tried and true wheeler take you out in your new jeep and let him drive , you will be very surprised as to how capable it is , it's alot more capable then you are believe me! After you wheel and get used to it and realize you NEED more , maybe by then you will know more about the sport and really know what you need !
