What are your thoughts?

I liked the Cherokee concept better!

 

[ZzzKing]

I like the wheels and the color is great. Needs to come in white / zebra stripe as a nod to the jeep in Daktari.

Agreed! We did a write up on that one also. You can find it here:
Expedition Time w/the Grand Cherokee Overlander and Off Road Wheels!

Ahhhh ok. Well in that case we got a write up for that one as well:
This Jeep Chief is a Surfin’ Good Time with Off Road Wheels and Tires



In case you haven't noticed we're Jeep freaks over here lol.

Call it the "Oregon Outback", make the driver top open without leaks, and I'll drive it home. And yes, I like the wheels on it too....although I prefer non-painted fenders.

Love the elongated cargo area, side gas tank storage, barn door and safari top. I'd buy it.

blasphemous words: I love the Africa Concept. It reminds me of my old FJ55.

Where can I find those plane steel wheels? I like them. Can't seem to find them

 

[rhinorear]

The wheel base looks longer. If so I really like that aspect.

 

[SilverMiner]

Definitely longer, look where the gas cap is compared to the end, compared with the standard JKU.

We've received several calls already on these wheels. After making several calls we found out those where a one off set build for that concept and as of yet no word on any aftermarket options.

I can assure you it's on the radar for wheel manufacturers though.

Thanks for all the feedback guys!

Here's another version that we covered that's my personal favorite:

Thanks for the heads up. Great job on the Jeep

That is definitely my favorite too. :thumb: Unfortunately it would be hard to replicate outside of the Jeep Design Studio unlike most of the Africa concept could easily be recreated.

Excellent idea - hope it comes to life

What an excellent idea. I like the extra cargo space - there was a distinct lack of storage in the usual model. GREAT design feature here being that it is no longer than the original's footprint with the wheel on the back. Very clever that!. The raised roof is sure to add to a very spacious feeling and the fact that it is fixed (and can presumably handle a good load) is a great plus. The lift is sure to be an advantage offroad, along with the bigger wheels/tires which look pretty cool. I REALLY WISH Jeep would get a little brave and move forward with a diesel. LEAD - don't follow for a change. over all I am very very excited and hope this, or some variety of a longer, hard-roofed, diesel Wrangler makes it into production.

I love the Africa with the Diesel.
Also would be interested in the Chief with a Diesel

Both would make great travel rigs.
