Do the front straps for shade cover interfere at all with the windshield fitment and tightness? Just ordered mine and noticed the install at the windshield. Same tight seal?
Yes, there is a gap between the rollbar and the windshield anyways so same tight seal.

2018 2-Door Rubicon, 3.6L, 8-spd auto
Got my Quadratec HardRock wheels and 37" KO2's mounted and installed. Very happy that I can reused my OEM lugs, OEM locking lugs and even the little plastic that surrounds the camera again. I got these tires for a few good reasons:

1.) I like how they look
2.) They're LIGHT. OEMish weight of 26-28bs. (my Black Rhinos were 41lbs)
3.) They have the perfect amount of size and offset (17x8.5 +12mm) and stick out about ONE inch outside of the fenders.
4.) They don't rub at all
5.) They're cheap. $800 shipped for all 5

BTW: Anyone with 37's ever get told that the tires couldn't be "balanced to zero?" They guy said that a few of the wheels needed almost 300g of weights, which he couldn't do. He said I might get some vibration but that was to be expected with 37's. I dunno how true that is, but I don't feel any vibrations. I have read that the KO2s could be difficult to balance tho.
I would love to see and front and/or back shot showing the amount of poke you get. I'm really looking at the Qtec 41 wheel for the reasons you quoted. The 41 wheel has the same width and backspacing; the offset differs about 2mm with them being +10mm

Is that a piece of rope to help them climb in? Actually very clever. Could this be the next Fob holster?
It is a sailing rope from Home Depot. Tied it off and threw a few knots in for them to grab.

Anyone do anything clever to protect your door sills? (Besides those awful mopar sill protectors which I have on already)
I have an Ocean Blue JL and the sills are already getting scratched up by people getting in and out

I haven’t applied them yet, but ordered the door sill PPF from @R 3 . My plan is to install the MOPAR guards over top of that.

Took the hard top off for the first time and installed my Spiderweb sun shade. I'm so glad they were sold out of the red, the blue looks amazing on my Ocean Blue JLUR! Oh, and my sweet custom plates finally came in! Love it! Life is great!!! :involve:

Got my elusive soft top window bag after 2+ months of waiting! Since several folks on here started getting theirs this week, I stopped in the dealership to check on mine. Low and behold he said I think one came in today, Went to the back and reappeared with the unicorn. Not sure if I should post the pics of me cuddling with it or not :involve::cwl:
