Good lord that's expensive

Well admittedly I didn't do any shopping around, but the price was so much cheaper then what I'm accustomed to in the Portland Oregon area that I said fuck it and just scheduled it immediately. I can say I was very impressed with the shop and the guys working there, and would 100% go back again if I needed to.

No plans yet! I work at SpaceX and having time off for an adventure is few and far between... Honestly If I go on an adventure it'll most likely be in my Comanche. I really wish you guys made more wheels for the 5x4.5 bolt pattern! I would totally buy another set of 5 if I could get the rt109 style or similar in a 5x4.5 bolt pattern.

Not really. In northern California I had 5.13 gears & a front locker installed. I got a killer deal and paid $3500. About 1000 bucks cheaper than every other place would do it for.

Powder coat shop had my bumper ready 4 hours after I dropped it off.. I mounted it up immediately. Super happy with how it turned out! Its been mounted for about 2 months now and still looks fantastic with zero chips or rust.

If your in south Texas I highly recommend checking out EHP Powder Coating and Aluminum Fabrication. His shop is a little sketchy but now that I have seen his work I wont be going anywhere else.

that did turn out great!

Looks good. I like the low to no lift look with the 37s. I have Rock trix wheels and 37s on mine with no lift and flat metal flares too. It is just mainly a beach toy and daily driver so no big lift needed.

Sounds like you're super busy building rockets! That's so cool you have both! That's something we have noted thanks to your feed back! We'll definitely take a look at what we could do and keep you updated if we ever release our wheels in 5x4.5 bolt pattern!

The bronze looks so good with the green. Great color combo.

Thanks guys! If you do choose to release them I promise ill be first in line to order a set for the Comanche. Would fit Tj's and basically every 90s jeep too so I'm sure you'd see the sales to make it worthwhile.

Agreed! A leveling kit is all these trucks need IMO. I have Rock Krawler 1.5" springs on the way to replace the teraflex leveling kit. I did swap out the stock Overland suspension with stock Rubicon suspension but I don't personally consider that a lift.. More like where all the JTs should be sitting stock lol.
