Sting Gray Owners w/ aftermarket wheels please post pics

[Jeddi]

Just took delivery of my rig and deciding on wheels. Tried out a spare set of machined Method wheels and Pro Comp spare off my other rig to see how they look against SG. I think I'm going with a different look.

I got the stage four with the King shocks. I do like it, the ride is def stiffer but what I expected it to be. Install was straight forward. I had one issue with the right bump stop hitting the spring on compression. Had to trim a bit off it, of course to get to it, I had to take almost EVERYTHING off the right side again.

I did have a couple of parts left over after the install, ha ha. Don't think I needed them though. I keep meaning to call EVO so see what they are for, they look like shock relocation brackets, not sure though.

I appreciate taking the time to respond.

Did you get adjustable shocks? I'm not a fan of the king blue against the gray... How do you think it looks in person? How's that bad boy corner?

This is the part if anyone knows what it may be. There are two.

?control arm relocation? Maybe?

Non adjustable shocks. You can order the Kings with black, it would better for sure. I want to say it was a $600 upcharge and a 4 week lead on it though. Don't quote me there.

Handles just like a Jeep.

Thought about that too, it's only about an 1 1/2" wide though. Control arms, everything really, wouldn't fit it.

2k on shocks and it drives like a jeep... You're depressing me. Lol

Bump.

I am not sure about the actual numbers but the ridge grapplers are heavy and mine are 35x13.5. I would guess that the wheel and tire together are at least 30-40lb heavier per wheel than stock. The auto transmission handles it well- no need to regear in my opinion.

Are you running the 3.6 or 2.0 turbo engine?

I just went with some 35” ProComp Extreme MT2 with some ProComp Rims on my 2018 Sahara Unlimited.

What do you have for a lift?

Just picked up our ordered JL in Las Vegas last Monday, got home last night and put 295/70/17 Milestar Patagonia on ATX Ravine 17x8.5 +10 (and Mopar Sidesteps & 18% window tint).

There are a lot of great wheels in there, but I am still having a hard time finding anything I like better than the Rubicon with black pockets or granite crystal sport wheels. I just don't think I want an all black wheel on mine.

yes... love those guys. Melvin put that actual bumper on my JK 10 years ago in his first location. Single garage in Springfield.

That's awesome. I'm in Jax too. Saw the Jax beach and just assumed.

I haven't been there yet, they scheduled me for Feb 19th. If you have the hookup see if you can get me in earlier. lol

Nice looking build, though I'm sad there is another modded out StingGrey in town. haha
