It's officially official.

I'm an addict. I've lurked here for months admiring all your builds and getting to know the lay of the land (aka reading thousands of pages of the forum). I bought my JL in August and it's my first jeep. Though I've loved my jeep since I drove it off the lot and when I'm not driving it I'm researching or watching videos or annoying friends about it... Today was the day that solidified everything. Today I got naked for the first time! ...and I have no interest in going back. I'm totally addicted. This feels like how the jeep is supposed to be!

I remember my first time (2 weeks ago) it was chilly out (for FL weather) but my wife didn’t mind and didn’t make fun.

Oh, you’re talking about the Jeep, how embarrassing..

Lolol

Nice ride bro!

Lol Thanks, man! I just read you were getting some new wheels, what combo did go with?

NP man!

I went with 17x9 MB 352’s Black in color with Nitto Ridge Graplers 33’s (technically 34’s according to the tire data sheet).

MB 352’s:

NITTO RIDGE GRAPLERS:

2 random Jeeps rocking the 352’s:

I called today and they won’t be in until Thursday.. I guess it fine because I’m waiting on my spare tire relocation bracket to arrive

Nice. I bet you’ll want 37s in a month. Lol

Cool cool. Did you do the reinforced tailgate too?

 

[TrailTorque]

Probably lol

I do want that eventually, however, I do not want to lift it right away. I’ll enjoy these 33’s for the life of the tire and when it comes to getting new tires I’ll do the lift.

Don’t need it for the 33’s but you will need a relocation bracket to make your spare sit higher and not rest on your bumper causing rub each time you open it. It best to do it that way. You can deflate or so I’ve heard but I’d rather not.

EDIT: (This is the one I got, if you click through the photos it’ll show stock vs bracket)
