Hi all, want to know about best external *appearance* mods, for the money, 2015 Rubi. Many of the new Rubicons I’ve seen around my town look great… they look bigger and beefier, and they make the stock one’s look whimpy by comparison.
I have to admit, I am not sure what specifically the other ones have done to look so much better---I know it’s mainly the size and stance of the tires, and maybe the front bumper, maybe a lift.
Here is my thinking on inexpensive to more expensive mods to get closer to that beefy look, and I am just wondering if this sounds right and where to draw the line. So give me your thoughts (and again, this is for 95% for appearance; moderately deep snow is the worst “off-roading” I will probably hit):

- Start with wheel spacers to add a more aggressive stance with the stock tires (cheap)
- Next, larger tires on the existing rims (I know there is a limit)
- Next, even larger tires on new wider rims (I know there is a limit without the lift kit)
- New front bumper (which type?)
- Even larger tires on wider rims with a lift kit and probably new or modified fenders to make room.
- Anything else?
