This. When people, particularly pavement pounders, say they wanna slap massive tires and lift on a rig, I tell them to ride in a similarly modified rig first to see what that does to ride and driveability.
I totally follow! Unfortunately, I am getting to that age when LED headlights help me too much; so function over aesthetics.
So much truth in these two posts. Half the guys posting the lifted fresh JL’s live in apartment complexes and are on leases. I find it entertaining that people admit openly to stuffing big tires and wheels on a Jeep that will only see pavement... just makes me scratch my head like WTF?Can you post what you ordered for new this, I assume they fit into the stock sound bar?
Yep.
Wrangler’s high resale means if you play your cards right, you could easily drive one for the same cost per year of some FAR less fun and cool vehicles.
Why lose all the money in mods,gas, etc just so a few bros think it looks sick for such a short ownership period. There are so many lightly used JKs on 35’s here for sell you couldn’t see them all in a week.
In confession, I was a victim of this when much younger and took a financial hit on a vehicle for aforementioned reasons. So... I get it but in retrospect I would never do it again.
All sports have that even in the states. I have a feeling it may have something to do with aerodynamics so they can state that a base model (in this case the sport and sport S) can achieve a certain miles per gallon/litres per 100 km. I could be way off base as to why the have it but that seems like a reasonable conclusion. If you do a search on the forum, you will see that a lot of people have taken them off while others have trimmed them to still cover the fog light connectors but remove the piece between the bumper and fenders. I know that’s what I plan on doing as soon as my sport S gets in (hopefully within 2 weeks according to my dealer)
Awesome. Thanks!
2 weeks ago, my Katzkin rep told me they are working on matching roll bar covers. No update from them on release date.
