I've had it for about 2 months now and love em! The guy at the tire shop doubled up the stick on wheel weights for some reason which rubbed the calipers so I just took some of the weights off and they are perfect. I've had em up to 80 mph no problem. Eventually, I thinking about getting internal balance beads and do away with the stick on weights just for peace of mind but the weights work fine for now.

Good luck on your purchase and be prepared to hear alot of salespeople tell you 15s won't fit a JK!
I had powder weights in my 07. They lasted less than 6 mths. The moment it got cold out (and we get real winters up here) they wouldn't distribute properly, and the ride was brutal. I didn't keep them more than 1 mth once the temp dropped. And the tire shop hated me for making them remove it - good thing I'm friends with the guys there.

Did you order your wheels an tires from discount tire direct. If you did, did they mount an balance them for you and how did you make out with that? Also was the shipping free? If they mounted and balanced them for you then all you had to do was bolt them on, right! Sorry for all the questions. I just don't want to make a mistake when I place the order.

Thank you for your info
