Hey all, new to the jeep community but definitely not to modifying (only cars). That was my reasoning to getting the JK, a highly modifiable 4WD that is built to be used and abused in every way. Sold my BMW and knew this would be a bare bones mountain and camping machine. My primary interests are going snowboarding and doing overland type adventures so I want to keep it clean looking and not outlandishly bro'd out.
You all have been awesome from the point of negotiating to below invoice, to learning how to disable the seatbelt chime, tire fitment without a lift and so on! I figure fellow JKers could help in my decision especially if you've done these mods.
The slate: 2013 JK Sport Bright White 6MT. Only options are A/C and 3.73.
I thought looking for wheels would be easy but I'm down to these few choices and change my mind every night. I'd really like 16" but is there any reason 17" would be beneficial?
16" Mamba MR1x black
16" Procomp 7069 black
17" AEV Pintler Argent
33" tires will be going on these. I like the stock look of the Mamba but am worried a year or two from now I'll wonder why I chose such a plain looking wheel...maybe not. Love the Pintler but only come in 17". Still entertaining the pro comps but not in love with them. Any thoughts?
Other mods for the near future: lights, bumper, winch, cage with safari/snowboard racks
I appreciate all the help in the past, now let's help get my first upgrade started!
