JK Wheels 101
3 weeks?!?! Wow, that's fast!! Does that mean my Unlimited Rubicon will be in next week??
Every time I get a new Jeep, I try to change as much as possible to keep it different from EVERYONE elses Jeep. I already have Orange RUBICON decals for the hood to replace the stock white ones on my black Rubicon. IF I can post a pic here, I'll post what I did on photo shop to change the color of the WRANGLER and UNLIMITED decals on the front lower body.
I like it.

Sorry, but not likely. I'm not sure what they did when they ordered it, but the GM at the dealership I got it from told me that it was line direct to the factory or something like that. Since my father in law is the GM of their sister dealership, I'm getting the hookup basically. Like I said, I didn't want it until next month when the snow hits. Oh well.:rolleyes:
Shoot...you're in TPA. Blasphemy is the (only) FOUR Wrangler Unltds I saw down at Brandon Chrysler Jeep with a big ol' 4x2 on the window sticker. Sheesh. I had to sit and listen to a lady arguing about colors and resale value with her husband as I was ogling the (Jeep's) hardware....I'll be taking mine next week, thank you, snow or no snow. Anyway, back on topic.
Yep, I bought my '08 X last week and it came with the 17 x 7.5 wheels. It's a shame that I'm swapping them out next week, I actually liked the wheels.
I hate to revive older threads but I didn't want to start another "will this combo work" thread. So here's what i'm looking at.
I know 33 x 12.5 are tight at full turn/flex so I'm thinking 2-2 1/2" BB w/33's and new wheels. The wheels are where the question comes in, I was looking at the soft 8's but don't want the extra weight so I found these Pro Comp series 8069 the only 5x5 BP they have in 16", as far as I could find, are 16x8 4" B.S. and -11mm offset (the offset is what i'm worried about, most I found are 0 offset and stock is +50.8) ... will this work? not stick out too far?
I found another thread about the ProComp 8069's but they were 17"
Anybody have this set-up? pics? thoughts?
Thanks.
