I dig it!

Maybe needs an 18" wheel though to really set it off in that size tire.

Are you freaking kidding me? If anything he needs a 15" wheel...the more rubber he better.

Nope, I'm not kidding anyone. It's called an opinion

Based on what? Looks or functionality, because from a functionality standpoint - going with 18" rims would be stupid. You take a lot of sidewall away with 18s.

in my opinion, i would put 15's on 40s if i could. The more rubber the better for offroad. For a DD would be different MAYBE.

I am very happy with my choice!

I bought these from a guy in Arkansas for a good price... I am such a cheap ass and have to buy used stuff!

These ride really good for what they are, And are about HALF the weight of the wheels and tires i got from Armycop!

The appearance of my JK now COMMANDS attention from EVERYONE from the ultra loud howl to the badass looks. I feel like an atention whore now!

As for the gear ratio, I actually feel an increase in power due to the reduction of rolling mass!

It was pointed out to me from the seller that i mounted these backwards! I didn't even notice that they were directional.
