I saw an ad in a magazine for some new KMC XD wheels that were a dark bronze color...I really liked them but dont know if they come in the right size/offset. Their site doesnt seem to have them on there either.

Has anyone come across some decent 16x8 wheels in the correct bolt pattern/backspacing for the JK? I am getting a white Unlimited and think they would look good. Post some pics if you have them. Thanks!

They are at the bottom of this page although I will never ever buy anything from this company again because they don't stock items when they say in stock and hire complete idiots.

Just my .02 cents

 

Sorry about that forgot that they weren't a sponsor...Thanks Robar. We don't want them as a sponsor anyway....

 

Interesting that you found them this way also...I have been in the store in Albuquerque 3 or 4 times, and I have yet to find anyone there that knew anything about not only THEIR products, but anything about applications for the JK. I've never been in a store with that many inept sales people, when you could find one to help...and they do not stock anything useful.

I thought it was just the 4 wheelparts stores here in the Dallas/Fort Worth area that had the idiots.

 

Apparently they weed out all the capable people and only hire morons. Must be a nationwide corporate policy.

Morons work cheaper.

 

I guess that's why they hire them for the Jeep salesmen too! Mine didn't even know what a differential was. When I asked about lockers on the X, he told me they had power locks (he meant doors) He barely spoke English!

 

Well my Jeep should be on the train today....so I need to revisit the wheel/tire dilemma....Im still stuck on these Bronze XD Hoss wheels....16x8 4.75BS, I think they will look slick on the white unlimited. But I have yet to see any real pics of them...Im not afraid they will look bad, but would still like a better representation of what they will look like.

Anyone? My other option is just to go with some black steel D-hole wheels.

ALso, it seems the only place I can get the bronze XD wheels is the retailer listed above...which seems at least in this thread to get some negative comments....which of course doesnt excite me too much.

 

I'm also interested in these bronze wheels from same company. I'd love to see some pictures... anyone. I've got steel blue coming. Blue and Bronze(brown) is a good combo, but not sure the black trim on my X will be too many things going on. maybe I should just go black...?

I just called and talked to Shane at ext 5710. he was knowledgeable... about wheel/tire fit for JKs at least. I think he's in Cali. I'll be talking to him tomorrow about how soon some black ones are available in what I want (shhhhh... I don't want everyone to have 'em!)

can anyone shed light on XD wheels on the road: are they are decent enough product for a non-lifted Jeep that will mostly drive around town?
