Default 15" wheels

Hey guys,

Thinking of trying something different this time around. I've always liked the looks of 15" wheels with a 35" tire. I tried searching but didn't find much. I was hoping some members with a 15" wheels set up could post up some pics. Any issues running 15" wheels? Thanks in advance

Im not running 35"s, I am running 33x12.5 R15s. I have the right 4.5" backspacing on the rims but the wrong bolt pattern so I have 1.5" spacers, the rims came off my old ZJ.

Only problem with going with a 15" rims would be u couldn't upgrade ur brakes to big brakes for the bigger tires and I think most aftermarket tie rods need 16"-17" rims if needing to upgrade in future!!
