Looks good. Think you have same wheels I bought for mine. Well, close anyway.

We finally made it to Moab, only did Fins and Things because I had the wife with me and her anxiety was about spent after that. Nothing but good news however. I linked up with another group early in the trail and ended up tailing another black JT the entire way through. Definitely helped picking a few lines so I could avoid dragging the trailer hitch.
And I still have to give nothing but rave reviews for my Yokohamas. I felt absolutely glued to the rocks the entire way.
I was a bit worried since I didn't have any lockers, but I guess it didn't matter since I never lost grip or had a wheel in the air. May have also been the swaybar quick disconnects from JKS helping to keep the wheels down as well.
