So we picked up our Jeep Wrangler 392 yesterday from St. Charles Jeep! As far as I know it is one of the very first ones in the area, and this thing is a beast! My first drive was a quick blast in the dealer parking lot and I actually giggled like a school girl when I stabbed the gas and it actually launched like a sports car. The ass end squatted and actually wanted to lift up the front end. We are already in talks with a lift company for a lift kit, and it will definitely be getting at least 37" tires on it, so stay tuned for more of the build details coming soon. I only had time to get some crappy basic pics yesterday but I did do a full walk around video and a comparison to my 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL Rubicon. You can find my full walk around video here:

***UPDATE***

We just spent an entire day test fitting 35's, 37's and 40's on our stock 392 to see how they all look and fit. Here is our latest video:

How they ever left the factory without at least 35" tires is astonishing to me.
I completely agree! I'm looking to go to at least 37's on it.

@ShockerRacing, the box behind the rearview mirror is for the adaptive cruise control system.

Thanks, I don't have the adaptive cruise in my 2018 JL or my JT so I had never seen it before.

Congrats on your new rabbit hole! Looks awesome!
I can't believe it either. The Ford Bronco can have 315/70R17 from the factory. Why couldn't Jeep do the same for a ~$75,000 vehicle? Haha
