Got the KK lifted today and new wheels and tires! :twisted: It is a Daystar 2" lift with BDS shocks. The wheels are 16x8 Eagle Alloy 137's with 4.75" backspacing and they are wrapped in 255/70-16 BFg AT's!

I hope you enjoy.

Personally I dont like the KK body style very much but yours looks great with the lift, wheels and tires.

Looking real good! 8) Amazing what a little more tire will do for looks.

The only thing I don't like on the KK's is the chrome around the light bezel. If that background area around the lights was body color or blacked out I think the KK's would look so much better.

or black/smoke background around bezel like those previous grand cherokees or charger, that would be cool. I don't think body colored would look good, would make it a bit toyish especially on lighter colors.

That is a really good looking KK.

I would also vote for taking the Dealership sticker off the back window.

someone said they dont like the tire cover logos either, it is much better than any decal on paint/body.. of course non would be the best but they all get greedy for free advertisement. Tire cover is easy to take off, or you can just take off the darn logo and have all black tire cover which I did a while back using graffiti remover.

as for the logo on his flipper glass, I have a suspicion that he may be getting free oil changes, free car washes as long as the decal is there.. If there is no limit to car wash, i wuold re consider the situation as well..
:lol:

KK is looking pretty BA man. You should have stuck the white walls out :lol: ...but then again I might be a lil biased.

I am not a fan of the KK but I must admit with a lift that beast looks pretty impressive. I might have to rethink my view on that model.

Looking good!

Just thought of something...can you drop a V8 in a KK? Just curious, I am sure that will toss a ton of fuel on the fire ;)

How hard was it to lift it? It looks like you have the Trail Rated version? Is that the "off road group" option? I am picking up an '09 KK tomorow and can hardly wait!!! I have a KJ, '02 Limited all stock.
(I'm getting a sweet deal on the 'cash for clunker' program, between that, current incentives and emp discount through my Uncle, saving $11K!!!)

Really nice look on yours, I like the KK's, always liked the Cherokee Classic's.

All KK get the TR badge unless they have the 18 inch rims or the dealer rips you off :lol:

That just seems so wrong. Crush an 02 and waste tax payer money. Hate this whole CFC crap.
