I just purchased a 2025 Wrangler Rubicon 2dr. :)

I must say, I like the body color top a lot more in person than in pictures. It looks GOOOOD.

The difference in the ride from my 2006 Rubicon is incredible! Let alone the tech features (as long as it doesn't fail... lol).

Wow. What a vehicle! Color me happy!!! :DView attachment 976767

I did use the 2006 Rubicon as trade-in for this as well as my 2005 M3. That was a tough decision.
 
We have a 22 4 door Sahara and now my LJR. Love them both. I will say my LJR is my favorite to drive but if I’m going longer than an hour I’m grabbing the Sahara keys lol. The new 2 doors ride pretty damn good as long as you don’t fuck with the OEM lift. If I were to get a 2 door I’d spec it with the XR package and swap the tires out for KO3s and be done.

Congrats that new blue color is cool. 41 in person looks awesome also.

I'm actually getting 35" KO3s installed on Thursday. lol

Folks on the JL forum say that the JLR is a bit higher than the sport and with the 4.10s will still work just fine with smaller 35s like the KO3s. I believe the guy at the shop says KO3s are 34.4". 315/70 R17

This is exactly what I would do. 35s clear with no issues and will ride amazing with the 4.10s. What rims? Keeping stock?

Yes, keeping stock. They said on the JL forum that the stock wheels still fit 35"s and DT even fit them, which are apparently very strict about safety and what tires they will or will not mount on wheels.

"35/12.50’s do fit 7.5’s. DT mounted and they stick to the rules “Standard guideline for mounting 35/12.50/R17 is on wheels 7.5 to 11.5” wide”- Tire Rim Manufacturers Association."
