Rims,tires, suspension
So now that I sold off a toy to free up some wallet space I can afford wheels and a suspension. I'm pretty dead set on going with the Rock Krawler 2.5 stock mod so I can build on it. I'm trying to find the place with the best price with the bilstein 5100 shocks and shipping. Any recommendations? Also I would like to transfer my 255/75 17 Goodyear wrangler mt/r's to a new black set of wheels. Will a 17x9 work for now until these tires are gone (half way already)? Any input would be greatly appreciated!!!

For the 5100's, pm kolak on here or over at jeepforum. He has a deal that is usually running for well under $300 for all 4 shocks. No one else is even close.
Or look at the rancho rs9000's...jeepaddons had a great deal on those for a while, not sure if its still going on or not.
Lastly, yes your stock 17's should go fine I those wheels for the time being. The 9" wide wheel is a little wide for that tire, but should be ok for a few months, or however long until you get new tires.
