What is the offset on your 17x9 wheel, and how much poke from factory flares? I'm guessing your offset is around -12.

Yes. 76,000 miles. New rear axle a couple years ago, replaced the cams and few other minor issues. Overall it’s been pretty impressive. Had it 5 years as of 4/26

What is your wheel spec? I’m going to order some dirty life wheels for my rubicon gladiator. I currently am running black rhinos with a 0 offset but dirty life has a -12 offset. The wheel and tire set up on your rubicon looks killer for it being on stock suspension!!

Great point, and back when this was filmed, no didn’t know that. But learned this about a year ago and guessing most others are unaware as well. Thanks. But also, the speedometer is calibrated with the Tazer so it should be very close. Although the 37’s are on it now and it hasn’t been updated now that you mention it LOL. Although I haven’t driven the truck since DECEMBER. It’s been sitting in a parking lot, long story. But should be driving it again by October hopefully. Nothing like paying $899/month for something to sit dormant!

Hah. Gas is now $5/gallon. Still for everything the Rubicon offers, it’s quite reasonable. People that want to compare this to full size trucks or even mid-sized trucks, just don’t get the Jeep factor. Does a tonneau help or hinder your gas mileage.

I used my drill to bolt it all together, slapped all that above my joists in the garage, and bam!
