WOW, I love that front bumper guard or whatever it is. First time I have ever seen one like that.

Get a WJ and I'll sell it to you. It's Mopar factory add-on. came with it when I bought it. $500.00 -$600.00 brand new. Granted it's ALL for looks, it's hollow! They could have at least made it solid then it would be kind of functional. I call it my "state of the art" rock and bug deflector.

What a transformation a set of wheels and tires can do to a rig. That looks sick man. How you like the tires so far? I was never fond of getting pro-comps but lately been hearing alot of good stuff from their newer tires.

Are those side steps made to act as sliders? They look cool. I think it is one of the best looking GCs I have seen.

Despite the warnings I went against... I Love the tires! They are suprisingly
quiet and more than adequate traction off-road. The lugs on these tires are very aggressive.

I actually don't like the side steps post lift, but those rocker panels that are on there have custom "rope lighting" built into them and if I take the running boards off I'd have to take the rocker covers off as well. IDK, I'll get around to removing them one of these days and see what it looks like... for now, plastic sliders.

Never having owned a GC I am not up on their accessories. I was not sure if they were factory or aftermarket. They look nice but if they won't stand up to trail use then I would replace them with a good set of sliders.

I have ran PCs for years and they really are a great tire. I don't know where you found out otherwise, but I have put them on three trail rigs and my Nissan Titan with outstanding results!! Peace out!!

It was mainly the price of the tires that turned me away. they seem to be very expensive compared to other major brands. Their buy 3 get one free isn't really that great of a deal cuz they jack the prices of the tires up real high to make up for the free 4th. When i was at 4wd hardware searching for tires, they had that deal and all four tires came out the same price as four bfg mud terrains.

Performance wise, i hear they do well.

I've got Pro Comp X-M/T's as well...I've been quite happy with them so far...and they were cheaper then BFG's at the time I bought mine...

Nice looking WJ...No rubbing problems with the 15" wheel? or did you modify something? So many conflicting stories as to weather or not they fit.....And they cost too much in Canada for trial and error. I'll probably end up with 16's just to be safe. Looks sweet though!
