That’s the “polished lip” ?! Holy friggin ugly! What the hell happened to regular gloss black wheels. They all look like ugly KIA hamster wheels now!
Those wheels match the picture on the cover of user's guide.

I agree. Looks like something Plasti-Dip can handle, if all black is not standard. Heck, that wheel might look good the color of the JK Recon's wheels. (Granite Crystal?)

I've noticed in many test mule photos nowadays there is no vent behind the front fender. I'm starting to think that vent will only come on the turbos...the 4 and the diesel. They could be masking over it with the camo, but if they are, it means the vent is not functional. Bummer either way. I like the looks of it on the renderings.

The vent is still there just covered by the camo. If you look really closely at some of them you’ll be able to see the outline of the vent.

I've zoomed in tightly and on most photos, I just don't see it. I know it may be covered, but if it is, that indicates to me that it isn't functional. I hope it is there and functional. I'd hate for it to show up and be only for show.

Is it just me, or does the grill in this pic seem to be more vertical than the raked grill on the JK?
Kind of looks more like the original Willys Army Jeep

Thankfully the polished lip wheel is an option and not standard on the Rubi.
