Dealer just sent me some pics of my Gecko.

Decision time. Give up the Nacho or not.
We're obviously biased here but that would be a hard decision.

EDIT: If you switch, strip whatever you want off the Willy's before you trade it in and grab some cheap take-offs off facebook to replace them.

You have no idea. Color I would lean a little towards the Nacho. But the Gecko was ordered exactly like I want. If I hadn't missed the Nacho order window by a few days I wouldn't even be making this decision. It has almost everything. But almost is the key word. Lol

If I do everything is coming off. I'm hoping they just let me swap wheels and tires. Love my Willys wheels.

I've posted this elsewhere, might want to make holes for rock rails a tad bigger. Wore the finish off mine

I enlarged mine when I installed them. I saw this as a future issue. I emailed ROKBLOKz last year when I got them and explained this issue to the T and they really didnt seem to care

2021 Gladiator Gecko
Got the Gecko two weeks ago. Just put on the 35's and now it looks like a Jeep.

Black Rhino Warlord wheels with Yokohama Geolander AT/X tires. Using Tazer Mini to set tire size. Rides smooth with almost no tire noise. Just a bit more bounce, but it rides and handles 95% of what it did stock.

Also ditched the plastic bumper for mid-width one and added some side steps.

Yes that looks really good! What is Tazer Mini , that you set the tire size with? Did you have to do any
kind of a lift for these tires to fit? Some of the Factory tires and wheels are so small for some reason.

Going to Toroweap Overlook tomorrow. A Gladiator and a 4Runner convoy...
Toroweap is a less visited area of the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. Sixty mile dirt/gravel road to get to the park, some great rocks and spectacular views once inside the park...
Wish us luck...
