15" Wheels for 08 JK Rubicon?
Hi Everyone,
I believe that I have read somewhere on this forum that 15" wheels are being run on JK Rubicons; but, I may be mistaken. (I spent a fair amount of time searching the forum, and finally decides it might be best just to post about it. Sorry if this is a redundant post.)
My local shop said that 15" wheels won't work because of the size of the brakes on the Rubicon.
(Or perhaps it's a case that steel wheels will work; but, allows won't work?)
Thanks for any help in clearing this up.
Jeff

sometimes works sometimes doesnt.
I have an x and bought the same wheels most others had purchased and they would not clear the calipers.
Here are some links that might help.
