Does anyone know of any aftermarket wheels that are 18x8.5 or even 18x8 size. Wanting new wheels for the jk but would like to use stock tires for a little bit longer. I know black rock makes on but what else is out there.

 

You can put your stock tires on the 18x9 wheels that are commonly found.

 

I know it can be done but i was told to avoid it if at all possible.

 

Continue on with your search but be aware of backspacing with the narrower wheels, you wouldn't want to be in the same boat six months down the road and have to buy new wheels again.

"Avoid it if at all possible" is a nice blanket statement but it's not as terrible or dangerous as it's made out to be.

Again, best of luck, but from someone who has run the wider wheel/ tire combo like that- run what you've got so you don't sacrifice later. I've done (and still do) 10.5" tires on 10" wheels for years.
