Got a hard top and tinted the windows:rock: also added gpca quick screws with hooks.
I don't get the savings with the quick screws. You still have to use a tool to unscrew the bolts on the roof, right? What am I missing?

Doesn't gpca quick screws make it easier for someone to steal the hardtop from the Jeep since they won't be caring the proper tools for the regular bolts? Google Jeep hardtop stolen.
Oh my god ive never seen so much hate for a stupid ass mod. If someone wants to run down the street with the hard top more power to them.

And it’s not like the stock bolts are a super secret shape. ;-). Star shape is pretty common. ;-)

How do the tires feel? I'm curious how the F rating feels compared to the stock tires/previous tires you have run.
Hey! The new tires run a little more rigid than the c load tires that were stock but it’s not a substantial difference that I can feel on the road. The other thing you need to think about for ride quality and how the tires feel is the tire sidewall. The stock rim and tire sidewall height was 7.9” and with my new set up it’s 7.5”. The amount of rubber between rim and road is slightly less. If I had gone with 18s on the 35s I would have had 8.5” sidewall and it would ride smoother than my 20s. For me it’s a look, I like the look of 35s on 20s. Turning requires a little more effort on the steering wheel, because the amount of tire in contact with the road is more. The new tires are 12.5” width and old ones were 11.2”. It still turns on a dime but you do need to apply more effort to hit the turn. Overall though rides great with the rubicon suspension. I had a 2016 JKU sport previously and the f load tires compared to stock c load did ride stiffer and could be felt. Hope this helps!
