Personally, I'm not a fan of most modern wheel designs... wanted to emphasize the simplicity of the Sport with a bit of retro feel. Was torn on black or white D-window steelies, but I think the black works better with the white body and black trim pieces. If I had to do it again, I might go orange with white steelies... but pretty happy with this.

Hutchinson Rock Monsters. DOT approved dual bead lock (outer and inner bead). 17" x 8.5", 4.63" backspacing. OEM tires for now.

They're heavy! 55 lbs each, which is more than 2.5 times as much as the OEM wheels at 21 lbs each. Be sure to keep wheel weight in mind as you plan what you want to do. Wheel+tire mass is a large factor in performance, and you can damage your tire carrier if you overload it.

YES I want exactly that set up. Tire choice may vary but that set up looks awesome. Are those 37's or 35's? Also, besides the lift did you have to get backspacers for the wheels or do anything besides add the mopar lift?

That sits real nice and like those rims. Mine is white with a black top but I hope have similar set up. Going with a 3.5 EVO kit and 37" K02s in 3 weeks. Those Toyos look good too.

LOOKS GREAT I THINK WE HAVE THE SAME WHEELS. I HAD THE 37 13.50 17 BUT I COULDN'T GET IT ALIGNED GO AND DRIVE GOOD SO I WENT BACK TO THE 37 12.50 17 AND IT JUST RIDES SO MUCH BETTER FOR ME.

I'm a fan of the BFG’s. They weren’t available when I did my set up so I went with my second choice.
I'm still very happy with the Tokyo’s, 7500 miles in and ride very smooth,
I personally think the 3.5” lift with 37’s sits nice. I think you’ll be happy.

Now that’s one of the better looking two doors I’ve seen thus far. Well done!

Finally, after months of planning (6 years without a Jeep) I picked mine up today. Very pleased. First picture is stock height last month...

EVO 3.5" Overland Enforcer Stage 3 Plus with 2.5" King shocks and 37" BFG K02s/Pro Comp Series 69 17x9 wheels. Wanted to minimize spun weight as much as possible so I went with trusted K02s (70lbs) and the wheel (22lbs). Throttle response is still snappy and 4.10s feel fine on the street. Will see in 4-Low.

Ride is a little stiffer than stock rolling on surface streets at 35-45mph, but the freeway ride is very choice. Very pleased I went with 37s. Going to spend a week in Big Bear at the end of the month, hope to do John Bull.

Can't wait to get rid of the 13 gallon trash can under there.

Tires are bigger than I thought.

Very nice. I found 26-28 psi to be the perfect pressure for my 37 KO2s. Rides nice and less twitchy on the highway
