Thanks David, much appreciated! I think is exactly the width/stance I'm chasing. Looks fantastic on yours!

Any chance you've got more pics available that you'd be willing to share?
I agree on the stance too, it looks awesome and as someone with a production date of 5/13/21 the more pictures I get to see the more it makes me a believer that it really is happening.
Did any of you catch the pictures of the new Ford Broncos that were getting delivered by Reliable Carriers that has an issue with the trailer malfunctioning and catching fire? That has to suck for all involved! My 2018 was delayed due to the rail strike und that was a bummer, I offered to go out to Ohio and pick it up but that was not an option with Jeep at the time. Three plus weeks late and it finally arrived

Wait, we are talking Jeeps here right? 😳

J/k. Pretty certain that your stance is what I'm chasing, but if you're still willing, I'm looking mostly for anything that would give a good visual of the wheels & tires outer width. As in, how far they stick out past the fender. So possibly something from the front or rear, (or both)? Maybe something that looks straight down the side, from the front or rear for the same purpose?

Anything would be great. Appreciate the offer!

Fantastic, just what I was hoping for! Thank you!

It really looks perfect like that to me. Any observations about how it drives now with the new size & width? (acceleration & ride quality, or any other pros or cons I should keep in mind?)

Thanks man

I think it feels more grounded and solid than with stock rims, ride quality is better, due to the extra rubber absorbing potholes. you're welcome.

real nice, love the color
I agree on the color it looks really nice, I went from a 2016 Hydro Blue to a 2018 Ocean Blue Rubicon and now I have a build date of 5/19/21 FireCracker Red 392 Rubicon.
If I had my choice I would own one in every color, I don't think there is a bad color out there, and to each their own on color choice.
I'm wondering why they went back to the earlier Hydro Blue instead of the newer Ocean Blue? maybe to much color variation depending on the lighting. Some Days it looked blue and others people would say nice purple Jeep. I guess only Jeep knows the answer??

How they ever left the factory without at least 35" tires is astonishing to me.

Congrats on your new rabbit hole! Looks awesome!
I put 35s on my 392 with 44 miles on it the day after I brought it home from the dealership. Looks and drives perfect!

Cleared everything out of my trade in... apparently forgot the stroller.
Is that a bugaboo?

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:
I love the color. I was back and forth with that one and blue. I ended up ordering it in blue. Finally, after a month, received a VIN this morning. The 37's in the video were 12.5" wide correct? Do you think 13.5" wide 37's would fit without rubbing as well?

The 12.5's on my stock wheels currently rub. With the Method Race wheels in the video, the 13.5's would probably clear because of the offset as long as they fit on that wheel.
