Those wheels are really nice. Look like they match up to the granite pretty nicely! Great looking Jeep

How your jeep do with the added weight from aftermarket wheels and tires?

Does anyone have pictures they could share of Granit with Tan interior? I’m struggling between black and Granit with Tan. Any suggestions black looks great in showroom but afraid will be dispointed as wont be able to keep clean and shiny
I had the same problem. I’m glad I got the tan, the pictures don’t do it justice.

Hey guys, so I finally completed my move from New York to California, and got to work on my JLUR.

You may remember the photo of my parents picking it up from the dealership for me - it was used in a few articles, and I included it below as a reference point to where my Jeep is now.

As you will see, this is no rock-crawler build. This Jeep is my daily commuter, weekend offroader. Mostly forest trails, fire roads, desert, sand dunes, etc. My wife and I also have to load my 1 year old boy in, hence the step.

Here's what's done so far:

1. The wheels are Fuel Beast, 18" x 9", with 4.5" backspacing and -12mm offset.

2. The tires are 35" x 12.5" BFG KO2s.

This wheel and tire combo will make the tires stick out around 2" from the wheel wells, which I think looks awesome. It's a dramatic difference over the stock tires that hide inside.

I purchased the wheels and tires from ExtremeTerrain.com, which shipped them mounted and balanced with TPMS sensors. They went right on with no trouble. Big thanks to them!

3. Mopar 2" lift ordered through Quadratec.com. Installed at 4WheelParts with alignment done too.

4. Mopar tailgate reinforcement kit.

5. Mopar oversized spare tire kit (may not be necessary)

6. Mopar grab handles, front and rear.

7. Redrock 13" antenna.

In my garage, waiting to go on:

7. Mopar grille and winch guard hoop for Rubicon steel bumper.

8. ARB twin on-board compressor.

9. Smittybilt Gen2 X2O 10,000 lb. Winch, Synthetic Rope & Wireless Control

10. Spider Web Shade

Ordered, and waiting to come in:

11. JCR winch plate for Rubicon steel bumper

12. MORE trunk wall compressor mount

13. Aries ActionTrac power "step-within-a-step".

Look great, congratulations !
How far your tires stick out from the fenders?

Just received a call from my dealership that my JLUR arrived this morning...about an hour ago...unannounced on a truck. As of last Friday, I was told that it was in the rail-yard in Marion, OH with about 75,000+ other Jeep Wranglers awaiting shipment. :surprised: Hmmmm. Well, with it arriving today, it has been EXACTLY 4 weeks since it was ordered. Will pick it up this evening. :like::clap: Photos to follow at some point this week.

Lift and tires done. Went with spidertrax 1 3/4 spacers and I’m so glad I did. Gives it a nice stance. Hard to tell from the pictures.

Looks badass!

Assuming you went with the Mopar kit and 37's? Everybody seems to be going with the Cooper STT Pro's.
