That's a great looking rig robbys3m3

Are those 35" tires? Who makes the wheels?

Thx! They are Toyo r/t 37s with fuel beast wheels. Since this picture I've added a big brake kit..that has helped tremendously with the 37s

Great looking rig!! Funny you have those wheels because the fuel beast and hostage are the two wheels on my short list.

My wife hates the idea of a wrangler but I guarantee she will love driving it and driving in it.

My wife normally drives cars so she doesn't love the feel of the jeep and what it's for...but she loves looking at it

I really think it's slowly growing on her though....she just doesn't wanna admit it.

On wheels I really like the beast as you don't see them everywhere...on my raptor I had the hostage and it looked great but was everywhere

Do guys running with the 37s have to replace the axle with wielded xfer case?

Granted I don't do a lot of offloading unfortunately, but all I did was switch to 4.88 gears. I ran it on 3.73s for a couple months, but the 4.88s helped a ton obviously.

Side note looking for a soft 8 in 18x 9 or 10 anyone seen these

I love my wrangler. Nothing like taking the top off and driving to the beach. Jeeps also have some of the best resale values out there. So if you ever get tired of it you won't lose much on it.
