Instead of an angry eyes grill, you need a custom uni-eye grill!

What color is the Jeep? I assumed Mojito, but the window sticker says Ocean Blue.

I need to double check the vin now....

Well Pulled the trigger on some Falken Wildpeak MT's last night, was checking prices out and came across the 315/70R17 for $206.10 each with free shipping. They will be here next week and now I need to find wheels....

 

[MyJlU]

Well We picked some new wheels out for Mike,
KMC Wheels XD127 Bully Matte Gray Wheel with Black Ring (17x9"/5x127mm, -12mm offset)

One of the Falkens arrived on Friday

I also removed the Euro Bumper things:

Wheels, Tires and Suspension are all installed!!! I'll grab some pictures after as I just sat down to have lunch and take a break....

A few notes of things:
1. The Lower Control Arms make a huge difference in how the jeep feels at highway speed.

2. The lower control arm bolts are tight AF, we had to use a jack to get them loose.

3. All wranglers should come from the factory like this.
