Im looking at running some AEV wheels and 35s on my jk. My question is are they tucked in more then lets say some soft 8s or xds?? I never seen a good front picture but it looks like they are. Anyone care to add to this?? Any pics?

I like the choice of Jeep center caps instead of the yellow ones.

Sir, where are your Yellow Center Caps???

I love my AEV Pintlers....First thing I bought.

You need to compare the offset of the AEV wheels to the others. But generally, the AEVs will be tucked in more. They run a +10mm offset and most others are -10mm. Thus they will stick out 20 mm more than the AEvs on each side.

Let me start out by saying I'm an AEV fan. Now let me bash them a bit.

The AEV Pintlers have a weak point - the so-called "valve stem protector". Your TPMS (assuming you have an 2008+ vehicle) will stick out like this:



See how they stick out? First rock or stump you come close to, they'll look like this:



Bummer. However, there's a fix. When you have your tires installed, make sure they band the TPMS inside the tire. Discount Tire did mine like this:



Then you can put in a shorty rubber valve stem like this:



Problem solved! Rugged wheels AND good looks!
