man that took me forever but looked at every rig on here for 77 pages! Whewww! Lot's and lot's of amazing looking Gladiators. I'm SOOOO torn now between the Black Rhino Armory's and the Mopar Beadlocks. I REALLY REALLY wish the Armory's came in a 8.5 or 9 with a single digit negative offset, of the Mopar's came in 18's. Either would be absolute perfection. If the stockers were a bit more aggressive they would be top 3 as well. *sigh* I need to make a decision by tomorrow afternoon so I can get these ordered.

My other dilemma is I really want 37's on my ecodiesel, but I don't want to go through having to regear.
One thing to think about on the Mopar bead locks is that the bead lock ring bolts do not appear to be countersunk. With them being exposed, any malformations due to rubbing or scraping will make it very difficult to get them out and may actually loosen them causing in the air leak.

I’ve also heard that some tires may not fit the mopar beadlocks because the bead is too thick and no one makes spacers for the lock ring.

Long time lurker here and finally a member. Bought this gem two days ago from a local dealership, truck was built and traded within a year. Their loss=my gain.
2020 Sport S
3.5” rubicon express lift
Bilstein shocks
Mopar wheels
Powerstep XL steps
35x12.5” wrangler duratracks

In my opinion, I think this jeep drives better than any of the stock gladiators (aside from the mojave)

You don't need to regear but expect lower than optimal performance, fuel mileage, and premature drivetrain wear if you don't.

Hello fellas. Mopar lift installed + 3/4" leveling kit. Kinda wish I went 1.5" leveling kit. Still on stockers for now. Tires are on back order. I'm kinda diggin the look honestly 😍. People don't like the gap but I love it.

Nice looking rig, Sayed! Sucks waiting on tires, but it is what it is. What tires are you getting? Also, please check out NOVA Jeepers to meet like minded Jeepers and join us on trail rides.

How are the MTR’s on the road? Are they noisy?
