AEV's for me. The other 3 are too "blingy" (is that even a word?) for me.

One thing though. I live close to AEV so I see their wheels on all the local Jeeps. I want something different. Do you know what its like living next to AEV?

I agree with tthe way to "blingy". I have the AEV's and love 'em but I understand your dilema. The 951's look next best. They remind me of the Pro Comp 1089's which I almost put on mine. But I like the solid "spoke" of the PC's vs the two spokes on the 951's................IMHO.

Here is a pic of the pro comps:

I love the AEV as well but I do like this black chrome finish too. I'm not one to be "blingy" but they are different then what everone else is doing. IMO

I'd say it would be between he Pro Comp and the Pintler.... I'm going with the Pintler I think.. But with you living right there ... And want to be different I'd go with the Pro Comp

I really like the Wlaker Evans "As Cast". They would look sweet with a black ring but at almost $400 each, I think Ill have to pass.



The gloss black are sweet too. How come the sweetest part/wheel/anything is always the most expensive?
