Finally got the lift and tires put on the jeep earlier this week. I was a little apprehensive about keeping the stock wheels and going with a spacer but I really like how it turned out. I've never been a "wide wheel and tire guy" so this fits pretty well. It is a 4" rancho kit with the RS9000 adjustable shocks. I like the ride so far and figure I'll mess with the shock settings as I go. This is my first 4 door jeep and I love it and so do my boys! Can't wait to get the top all the way off once the weather straightens out.

Looks great on stock wheels!

I agree also with the pricing! They are making the 1/2 tons that are so expensive these days seems cheap. Went about 3 weeks ago to look with a friend at a brand new Unlimited Rubicon. Body matched roof and flares. Leather, NAV, auto with 4.10s, etc etc. pretty well loaded..it was $44,700!!!

He ended up getting an LTZ crew cab Z71 silverado with a 5.3...FOR LESS (he got it for $41K) as they were willing to move much on price of Ruby. Insane.

I would love one with a V8 and touch more towing ability and power. A buddies older Rubicon (guessing 2011 or so) kinda struggles pulling a 19ft flats boat with 4 of us in it.

Looks awesome man! I have such a soft spot for a clean JKU!

Make sure to hit up my buddy Ryan at Extremeterrain! They are a great group of guys over there and Ryan definitely knows what he's talking about.

Looks awesome. I'd like to have an Unlimited for cruising with the top off in the summer.

Looks great. Heres' mine

Nice wheels :coolman:

I'm seeing too many clean Jeeps in this thread. Go play in the mud/rocks and report back with proper pictures :)

Looks great. Just picked my wife's up on the 18th. With little prompting from me, she already wants it lifted and wheels. I like the Sahara wheels blacked out.

OP look into method wheels. I love them and they are usually positive offset and can easily be found for under $1000 for wheels alone for even the 20x10s...let alone a 17x9 etc.

Lol, I've had method wheels that I liked picked out since we ordered the jeep in April. Just need the boss's approval to drop the $ and put them on.

yeah they are great wheels @a great price and not that common (for now lol). The postive offset helps a lot of guys clear the tires they want and/or keep there rig clean.
