Thanks Snipe! Not sure on black wheels yet. I like the contrast look of the Overland rims right now. If I go to black wheels they will likely be 18s with larger tires..

Looks great. That's a lot of dechroming you did there. SRT headlights and tail lights (not just bezels) would really complete the look! And to go even further, OEM or replica SRT gloss black or black chrome wheels would look mean.
Thanks for the suggestions. Still think I'm going to stick with the Overland wheels as I like the contrast (for now) - plus this doesn't cost me additional $ .
I'd like to see SRT black (or black gloss) goliath wheels on a black wk2..haven't seen them on a black Jeep (non-SRT) yet.
What is the difference on the SRT headlight/tail lights?
Thanks! Yours don't look bad either...I wouldn't mind having two sets with different tire choices.
Although I'm getting some vibrations at highway speeds after they were balanced twice and had an alignment (granted all from the same place but they have a good reputation). Tried messing around with tire pressure didn't do much. Next step might be going to another shop to get them balanced..or road force balanced, possibly rotated. Or maybe I'm being to sensitive to normal vibrations..
I had Hankooks initially that did the same thing. After Discount Tire trying to balancing them 3 times. The lat being road force I decided to swap them out with the Yokohama's. No vibration to speak of at any speed.
^This. Did you have everything painted? Wrapped? Altitude parts? I am trying to do the same right now. Just ordered the same wheels and have 285/50 20 Grappler G2's being installed as well.
Looks really good. Are the wheels hub diameter the same as what is on the Jeep? In some cases, aftermarket wheels have a different size requiring you to get hubcentric rings to go inside the wheel and slide on to the hub of hte Jeep so there is no vibration
What method of de-chroming the window trim, mirrors, and door handles did you employ? I just got a white 14 limited and am looking at my options for accomplishing the same thing. Again, it looks great.
I had my Jeep road force balanced..only one tire very slightly off balance but that adjustment did the trick, back to smooth highway riding!
Tires are 295-45-20.
Blacked out mostly with vinyl wrap, diy- the window trim was time consuming and a little scary to use a razor blade on the jeep but turned out great with some patience. 3m black metallic. Plasti-dip on emblems and handles...will paint, wrap, or replace handles at some point.
What did you do to de-chrome the front lower bumper, fog light bezels and the grill? Plasti dip or did you get them done professionally? Looks awesome and I also like the contrast with the wheels. Very nice
