Default Can someone please tell me which wheels these are ?

I am very curious to know which wheels these are hiding behind what looks like some kind of wheel protector infront..... despite my every effort I could not locate which wheels these are. They look like Dick Cepek DC-1's or DC-2's ... but the Dick Cepek's don't come in all black like these.

Please help! Maybe they are just powdercoated Dick Cepek's?

Here are some pics from our very own Project-JK site:






On a side note Im actually really liking the LoD rear bumper and tire carrier on this Jeep as well!

Thanks again all!

You're correct. They're DC's, just powdercoated.

i guess my hunch was right then. I really do love the look of the DC's in all black.

Any idea if those are 17's or 18's on that rig? they look like 18's wrapped in 37's ?

Just not sure if an 18" wheel would look right wrapped in 35's.

I think I found my wheel of choice... its just unfortunate DC doesn't make them in all black to begin with.

If that's a DC, then RC did something other than color it to modify the wheel. if you blow up the image of that JK, you will notice that all of the wheels have cut-outs that say RCX on them. Nice modification that makes the wheel look very unique.

I noticed the "RCX" right off the bat as well on the spare. Maybe you could hit up the Rough Country rep on the Forum to see if he could give you any guidance.

^^^ thats a good suggestion... might try that to confirm, but, im pretty damn sure those are dick cepek's powdercoated (considering the tires are dick cepeks as well)... i just needed another set of eyes to confirm which you did as the first person to reply!
