The tires add alot to the look and the rims help give it a very subtle stanced look but nothing awkward.

Sorry for the weird colors in this one, got a little carried away on the exposure!

So on regular height, no rub on full lock to the left, on full lock to the right it barely kisses the wheel well. I feel confident I could work that out with a heat gun but it's so slight I'm not too worried about it. It only brushes it on absolute full lock.

Same size tires I have on my 17, looking good. I suggest wrapping the front chrome in gloss black :)

So if I’m calculating this correctly the setup you went to is only 0.2” larger diameter then the stock setup and the same width.. so if you’re seeing some light rubbing then it seems unlikely that even a 285/60/20 (+1 size over stock tires) would fit on the stock suspension.. am I calculating that correctly?

There are people running that size on the AT4 Facebook group but about half are reporting rubbing. Another factor is with the Ridge Grapplers and a lot of M/Ts the shoulder lugs are more squared off and larger than the stock Wrangler ATs. Those blocky shoulders are what is scrubbing some.

Posted these on FB and thought I’d add them here. One of my companies is a drone services provider. We had a little extra battery at the end of a reconnaissance flight yesterday so I grabbed a few shots of the AT4.

Went in to the dealer for an oil change yesterday. They had no new Yukons or Tahoes on the lot. They basically unload the few they get, prep them and they are gone. Anyhow, as I was leaving I slowly drove across in front of the showroom floor and my phone rang. The owner and I are friends and he said to let me know if I wanted to get rid of the AT4 as he had 2 buyers right now that would pay new price plus cash lol. Looks like with the microchip shortage I'll be in this boat for awhile.

Air ride + AT4 is the hot ticket right now evidently and is simply not out there. It's always tempting to make money on a vehicle, but it's wierd to be able to do it with a 3 row SUV!

Most of the pics are on normal. I think the pics of the day I mounted the bronze wheels in my driveway it was on high in those shots.

Thank you for this info. I have been looking for alternative tires with stronger sidewall and offroad capability than the factory AT that would fit stock height and suspension.

UPDATE 6/6/2021:

Sitting at 12,000 trouble free miles, well at least trouble that wasn't mine or the vehicles fault LOL.

Had a guy cross the center line and smoke my drivers side mirror. Combined impact was probably ~100mph+ if I had to guess. We were both easily doing 50mph on a narrow country backroad. Waiting on a parts to get it back going again. It folded in but broke the camera from the housing and the mirror glass shattered bigly. $1100 lesson for the guy who admittedly was playing with his radio when he hit it.

Other than that the AT4 continues to do whatever is asked of it. Ready to have my side view mirror back ASAP. It's a big car to not have a mirror on so I've had to let it sit more than I'd like. Makes you appreciate how good it is at what it does.

im sure that its operator error! Ill give them another shot. I was trying to get the 2 rokus and every app on them setup and i didnt have any mental energy left for the headphones. The bose paired immediately though.

i have been enjoying the onstar wifi as well. I have my 2016 tahoe on the att wifi signal and its been great.

finally got my first oil change and brought the headphones with me. Turns out mine didnt work because they were for a 2020 gmc acadia or something like that.
They gave me some correct headphones and they work great. Dang i spent 2-3 hiurs trying to get them to work.
