Our new Wrangler 4xe has factory wheels but those wheels are just as prone to being stolen as aftermarket, perhaps even more so since demand for factory wheels is somewhat higher. A simple solution to reduce the chances of your wheels walking off is adding a set of wheel locks. We’ve covered this before on …
We new the jeepfan.com 2018 JL Wrangler as part of our project needed new wheels to accommodate the 37″ tires since the factory 17×7.5″ wheels aren’t up to spec for a 37×12.50 tire.

Some upgrades to Christine’s JK to improve the Jeep’s performance on and off road. Lift, Tires, and Wheels.
