    "When you go of-roading you have to upgrade the lights"? This is just my guess but 95% of off-roading is done during the day. The lights would be one of the last things you need for off-roading.

    @lingenfelterzeeohhsix8154 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Tip,..I didn't notice if you changed the spare or just put a cover over it, when changing tires and or wheels ALWAYS ALWAYS be sure to get a full size matching spare wheel and tire. So if you end up needing to use it, it's jsi nice to put the spare on and the tire and wheel are identical in siE and style, back spacing etc , then if you're off-road when it happens you're not wheeling with different sizes .. not a fhiyr deal for a sport but if your end up with a Rubicon or some that has aftermarket locking differential you won't have issues if your wheeling and it locks or you lock it, aside from that it looks 10,000 times. Better having an actual matching spare , drives me insane when I see a wrangler on 35's or whatever and has a little 30" spare. That much of a difference is dangerous ontnhe highway especially the little wheel base wrangler.
