I personally can't stand the look and the lower profile tires really hinder the off road performance, but I guess if it's just going to be a street/mall crawler then to each their own!

I'm not a fan of 20"+ wheels on a wrangler, but the reality of it is most Wrangler owners will never go offroad(Not speaking for the people on the forums as we seem to be in the minority.) I used to run 15" wheels on my JK with 35's and briefly 37's. I loved that I rarely had to worry about damaging my wheels even when playing in the rocks.

With that said, if the 20"+ wheels make that person happy I say go for it. :beer:

Jeeps are so customizable that they can be built for many different tastes and function and for that, I think its cool. but that style is not my cup of tea. There is one up the road at a dealer with 26" wheels.... NOPE!

There’s one on here that I’m sure could pull a full flex on a speed bump... 24’s I believe... not my shot of whiskey but I don’t judge.

I think 18s are the biggest I'd go. I don't like the look of huge wheels on Wranglers. 20s can look ok with 37"s or above depending on the wheel though. What I really don't like are wheels with fake bead locks.

Sorry I'm a bit late to this, just got my JLUS. I really like the look of your 20x10s, what is the exact wheel spec on those.
(Don't think I'll go bigger than 35s though, maybe even 33s for road use)

Thanks

My son drives a semi so maybe I'll put some of his extra wheels/tires on and see how they look.

I like the 20 and 35s. Think it’s closer to the ratio of the original Willys Jeep. More rim, less tire. I do like a plain rim when this is done though.
