That's a great setup and I would love to see those Viper wheels on my new JKU. For Canadian regulations I need to stay within the fenders and I only plan on putting 275/60/20 on them (33") - do you think that will work? Why did you put spacers on yours? Looks or potential rubbing?

Thanks

Man those look cool but theyd get hammered on the trails we run here. Was going to keep my stock Rubi wheels but they have the same problem, they are so shallow the trails we run just eat them up. Be neat if they had those with a deeper dish to them.

Do you remember if those wheels without the wheel spacers would have fit under the stock fenders? I would like to get 275 wide tires only or 295 and wonder if I could stay under the fender (required where I live) with those wheels.
Thanks!
