Looks great. I thought they produce them in a -6, -12, & +6 offsets. I was trying to get the wife to get them on here jeep. Looking at them i wish i could have convinced her.

The trophy's sure are sweet! I had a tough time deciding between these and the Methods I bought. My favorite wheel by Fuel by far

Looking at the same set up. They come in an 18x9 which I favor but the offset is -24mm. Think that will be too much on a stock JKU. Second opp is the 20x9 with -12mm off both have 4.5 offset????

I think the 18's are 18x10. They look super nice, but finding rubber to fit those on a "stock" JKU is unlikely. Typically you would be well north of 33" for something that could take a 10" rim. Similarly, the 20's are likely going to require tires north of 33" to not look strange. Most of the pics you see of the 20" on pickup trucks are 35s
(I presume you realize they come in 17x8.5, and just prefer the other sizes.)

I know I'm bringing this back from the dead...but I'm trying to decide on Trophy's as well. There are 18x9 and 20x9's available now too. I think I want the 20x9 with a 295/60/20. This will make the spokes show more, and still have a decent looking tire. Any thoughts?

This is what pushed me in that direction. I LOVE it!

the -24 offset are the "deep lip" version, right? I'm thinking I want a deep lip, why would -24 offset be "too much"? the tires would stick out of the fenders too much, or ??? I thought the offset being -24 was waht allowed for the deep lip look, we're talking MM here, so another 12mm is barely an inch more?
