My first "modern" Jeep back in 2010 was a fresh new 2011 2Door Sport. Before I went crazy with it, a budget boost and 35's got me to places I would have never imagined a passenger vehicle would go. Things have come a LONG way since my first Jeep when I was a teenager ('76 CJ5). With your...

Thanks! Here's the two of them together.

I had some where even the recessed ones get smashed at times, but true much less so.

Awesome plan getting back to basics!

You are going to scratch up any bolt heads on a beadlock if you actually wheel IMO. Best to get what you like / fits and deal with it. My rings and bolts have taken a pretty good beating and are doing fine.

Overlander is correct, my CJ is on tons with 8x6.5 lug pattern.

Here's a pretty good shot of the wheel / tire.

Love my Hex's. I actually wish they made them in 17" 8x6.5 so I could run a set on my CJ as well.

I was on the cusp of going the $40k more route with long arms, coilovers, axles & 40s+ (which meant new wheels as well) but instead I bought a dedicated crawler. That said, I still plan on spending 10-20k on that now that I have it....

On the JKUR, 37x12.50r17 KM3 on KMC Hex, I go to 6-8psi depending on difficulty. On the CJ7 on 43x14.50r17 TSL SX on Raceline Rock 8s go to 4-8psi depending on difficulty.

Rocotillo Rapids in Las Cruces NM. Been wanting to run it a while so was super happy to get with a group! Was the little guy of the bunch but made it through with a little "clearancing" of the gas tank skid and a winch in 1 spot (the ledge that is right about half way through was just to much...

Mounted a compressor under the front passenger seat.

I have a portable compressor I am pretty happy with as it is large, has a 45min duty cycle, puts out 6.35cfm and was only $160. In my past JK I had a Dominion on board air setup with the tank and Viair compressor and it was SLOW on 37s compared to this one that I am mounting (this one does a 37...

For those of you with the Lux kits, was the 8pc enough or did you supplement it with additional? I was thinking 1 in each fender well, 1 on each side and 1 front and rear with the sides / front / rear being kind of centered. Thanks!

I'm coming off of several sets of Trail Grapplers and a few MTR/K over the years and figured I would try KM3s this time around. I have now had them on 2 sets of wheels and while the KMCs are better than the steelies they started on, they still have a pretty nasty hop to them Anybody else...

Went ahead and did the PSC Big Bore XD2 box by itself since my main goal was a stronger sector shaft. Steering feels different, but nice. :thumb:

Went ahead and did the PSC Big Bore XD2 box by itself since my main goal was a stronger sector shaft. I figure if I go to big axles & 40s down the road I will deal with hydro then.

Hey all, I am looking to put the portable compressor I have, hard fixed under the passenger seat. I was hoping to find one of those amp shelves that would mount to the seat base frame, but the ones I see say 4" of clearance for height. The compressor I have needs 4.5-5" (it's big but fills 37s...

More Tank:

Thanks! Yeah, I have always been a fan of the black wheel and machined ring. I am 99% sure that these in the 17x9 / 5x5 size are hubcentric. A couple more pics:
