Hi all I am thinking of running Ultra type 164 with Size: 15x10, Offset: -48mm and Backspacing: 3.66, and as much as I have read about backspace and offsett I am still kind of confused. Basically my question would that wheel rub or have any problems? I want something that I can just put on and not have to worry about other mod's to make them work properly.

DTD has a great thread in the sponsors section with all sorts of 15 inch wheels that work. I would check that out to see.

I believe the Rk one is a better fit, but costs more because you need to buy 2 drag link ends.
Just ran on to this thread. I'm getting ready to order the same wheels and Synergy tie rod for my '08 JK. Do you have any pics of yours ? Thanks !

Those Gobi's are sweet. Expensive, but sweet! Ill be needing one eventually, hauling around a Great Dane and Chocolate lab along with camping gear leaves little room inside.

Has any one tried or researched Aero wheels? They make wheels for Nascar and other roundy round stuff. Most of their series are ultra light weight non DOT approved. But the Series 50 is a bit heavier duty. I love the look and I want. Any words of wisdom?
