GRANITE CRYSTAL METALLIC Wrangler JL Club

[ccarrico29]

Picked up my Granite Metallic Rubicon last Friday and must say I am in love! It is more than I imagined and here it is with new 17x9 Fuel Hostage wheels and 35/12.50R17 BFG KO2 AT tires! Love this setup! Glad to be part of this club!

Any chance for getting more pictures of this beast? Literally perfect. I'm the furthest thing from a "gray" buyer, but this thing has me strongly reconsidering my Mojito wait.

Do you know the back spacing and offset of your wheels? Would you mind posting a pic to show how far the tires stick out pass the fenders? Our Rubicon is on order and will be sent to Hawaii. They will not allow tires to stick out pass the fenders much.

@Dynomite1371 I disagree. First I want to say this is personal preference and we can agree to disagree. I prefer the black top and black fenders, because it is a more "classic" wrangler look. I like the subtle differences with the black and granite. An additional bonus if you go off roading, you will find the black top is easier to touch up and the plastic fenders won't show the rash as much.

He asked for opinions, I gave him mine and you essentially gave him yours. That's all they are, opinions. He will do whatever he chooses, whatever opinion helps him decide either way.

These wheels have a 12mm offset and the wheel is 17x9. The tires stick out around 1.5” from the fenders. Others that put 35” tires on the stock wheels have said that their tires are close to flush with their fenders.

Ordered the JLU Rubicon, Granite with body color top and fenders, after seeing the Granite in the sun there was no other color in the running for me, DD......6-8 weeks ETA.....

Congrats was going back and forth Black

 

[BaldEagle]

Joining the club. Was waffling between the red and granite Rubi. Finally made the call mentally and think it’s time to order. Anybody else order a granite Rubi?

I am going back and forth with granite and black

 

[BaldEagle]

It’s not mine, it’s dealer ordered. They told me $657 for a 36 month lease...lol. Not a surprise why it’s still there...:cwl:

Why still there

 

[BaldEagle]

Mojito is a very nice color.

Guess you need to ask yourself, whether you want a true color or what most of today's industry has gone to of the standard black, grey, or white?

Black is sexy

Some photos I took recently to hold over til the big upgrades get installed next week! (37in Ridge Grapplers, XD rims, Evo Overland stage 2 kit with shock extensions).
Last one is showing the tint that was installed today. 5 percent all around.

Nope. Don't remember the amounts. They measured what was already installed and added what was needed on the front and back to equal 5 percent.
