Nice! Looking forward to hearing how the fitment is with the new shoes.
My 2022 WL74 SR will be arriving in the next couple weeks and I've ordered up a set of Vossen HF-3's in Bronze - sticking with the 21" and 275/45 as there aren't enough real life examples of the WL74/75 with sizes other than OEM.
 
Very nice and congrats on the order! I’m a fan of the bronze finish against a black vehicle. You mind sharing the width and offset you went with? Another member recently posted a set of 22x9.5 ET:+35 that, in my opinion, look really sharp both in fitment and style.

Also do you have plans for the TPMS? A few members have shared some frustrating experiences trying to get aftermarket sensors to work with the ‘21 models. MOPAR specific ones seem to work but there’s apparently 2 models and they’re not cross-compatible and not cheap.?.?

I'm running +32 in the rear and +35 in the front. I fitted the factory TPMS from the WL75 limited, about $144 for the set of 4.

I am looking at the VF9 22x10.5, but wondering if the 305/40/22 will fit? Clearance is 31.7, at 295/40/22 is 31.4, a 305/40/22 is 31.6, that seems so close.

I will update this post once my Jeep arrives, it's in transit and built last week. I did see a guy in NYC fit 305/40/22 with +35 on this 2021 WL75. I am 95% sure it will fit, my grinder will take care of the other 5% if needed.

Oooohhhhh, I didn't even think about using my grinder, you could probably even angle it to allow more. The control arm is pretty thick and it probably wouldn't require much at all to correct and it is only in the front.

Anybody have specs on what fitment for 20" Overland? The air suspension throws it off for me and I'm missing my staggered X5 stance...
