I agree with this. I'm personally not a big rims on Jeeps guy. Thankfully your tire choice does leave enough sidewall. With a 35 it would be just wrong.

Love everything else about the build. And love sarge ALMOST as much as I love Gobi. ;)


Love everything but the 20s. Personally not my cup of tea.

Aesthetically I love it. My only worry would be, driving on a lot of gravel roads, that tires that stick out that far would send gravel flying up against the paint.

Except the 20's. What's up with that?

20s are customer preference as this one will see mostly light duty offroad. basic fire roads/trails and beaches. Myself, Im a 40s on 17s kinda guy, but I think all looks have their place...and this one fit his needs perfectly.
37s on 20s still have ample sidewall for airing down, although not ideal they are still functional.

I'm in RI also, I'll have to keep an eye out for it. Not a huge 20's fan either but I think it works on this one.

Normally I don't like large diameter tires on jeeps either, but these tires are large enough that it doesn't take away from the build at all, imo. Nice rig, and congratulations to the owner.
