I'm shopping for a new set of wheels. I plan to reuse the tires I have because they have >50% life left (315 75R16) so this requires I get 16 inch rims again. There seem to be a lot of 8.5 and 9 choices in 17 rims but not in 16 rims. A 16x8 rim is just a bit too narrow IMO for these tires. I'm shopping for 16x8.5 or 16x9 with a 4.5 to 4.75 backspacing. I'm not finding any so far. Is anyone aware of brands of JK compatible rims in 16x8.5 or 9 widths?

 

If you don't mind steel I would check with Black Rock they offered to custom build me what I wanted. Not 100% sure if they can do the wider 16" wheels but they might be able to help.

 

Just go out to any website that sells wheels and plug in what you are looking for.

For instance, Discount Tire Direct, Wheels, By Size, 16"/5-127mm(5x5)/8.5"width, Go
Brings up 3 pages of 16x8.5" rims for the JK bolt pattern.
