You've got MAIL. Remember we all started somewhere, some of us typing in all caps. Thankfully WebTv never made it.

I'd love to test the ORIGINAL link where that pic was seen............. still bet it's a browser or rendering issue on the local machine rather than something else. But the only way to know is to have the exact same link to try - otherwise it's just a pic to make jokes about.
I've been all over Jeep dot com lately - have yet to see any issue other than sometimes a delay in a picture changing if I change an option or view.

I posted a link. Renders the same in Edge, Brave, and Chrome.

Here it is - where's the problem?
I clicked your link, and visually compared to make sure there was no redirect, etc. - and all Jeeps have all wheels

2023s all look fine -

Your link in Edge -

Nothing has changed - I checked these pages as soon as I saw his original post, and they all looked fine in Firefox, Chrome and Edge.

What zip are you using? Some things appear to be regional and with our internet, you can't possibly use location services since USCC is all over the country and the IP addresses cover huge parts of the country.

Firefox - Perfect rendering of everything (including the Willys 4xe in the top row which seems to be your featured offer) ->

Got it- it's totally dependent on the zip code and the "featured offer". I plugged in a low zip code I figured would cover eastern states and found this - all models are fine except the Willys, all the others render ok. (and it's only certain zip codes that don't get the tire)

I would prefer to buy a Jeep without wheels and tires at a discounted price. Then I wouldn’t have to bother with the stock ones after immediately swapping to something else.

This is the insidious effect of the tech industries goofy shit on the greater economy. Jeeps will now be iterative like software. It’s what’s called a “minimally viable product.” The DoD calls it “concurrency,” but it’s basically iterative “agile” development of physical products. It’s how you get $2T fighter program that kills pilots and a carrier that can’t launch or recover them for 6 years.

You’ll receive the 4th wheel at a later date.

All jokes aside, we can expect this very real trend to continue (maybe not missing wheels, but who knows), where you will buy a product that’s half-baked and missing promised features that will be added later. Obviously, this is already happening in the area of infotainment systems and software. But expect it to happen in physical features too. Business cretins love iterative design and production because it allows them to deliver unfinished products and then water down the requirements (promised features) consumers already paid for or charge for those features as later add ons via software unlock.
