My JK is only 6 days old and has around 140 miles on her. My wheels, tires and lift will be here soon but I wanted to see what it could do as-is, even with the crappiest wheels and tires that Jeep offers. All I can say is WOW! I was out with my buddy's fully built JK and had no trouble conquering the same hills and rocks as him. Clearance was really the only concern. Got a couple of nice pinstripes too!

Enjoy the pics and don't laugh at the stocker running flat fenders - it's only a temporary look!

Thanks! It was a blast. Even in basic form!

I purchased my sport with those wheels, and I plan on using them for winter tread. They are 16" wheels and I plan on loading them up with BFG AT 33s. They are going to look an act sharp! :) We get a lot of salt and mess in the mid atlantic winters, and my soft sand tires need to come off in winter. :(

Yeah, I guess the wheels themselves aren't that bad. Just basic. With the wimpy OEM tires on them though they look a bit ridiculous IMO. I feel like I'm driving a blue mail truck. Hurry up Discount Tire!

Thanks! Funny story about the grill - I was planning on plasti-dipping it so it would be reversible if I wanted to go back to the stock look. At the same time I was doing that, I was bedliner'ing the inside of my rear wheel wells after putting the flat fenders on. I grabbed the wrong rattle can and now have a bedliner'd grill!

These pics were taken sort of in town at Dynamite and Scottsdale Road. There's a wash back there with some trails and a couple fun hills to climb. Not the most amazing trails but definitely nearby and still fun.
