I have 33in toyos on 16" and I need a set of new rims that will fit on my jk. Those rims and tires fit on the '05 I had before my jk.
I am debating between these two pro comp rims
7189s

or
8179s

They are both the same price, so that does come into play.
also here is an image I found of each of the rims on jks
7189

8179

Please post any pics of jeeps with either of those rims!
Thanks!

I voted 7189 because I think the spokes look better than the "holes". I will say, though, the pic of the jeep with the 8179 makes them look much better than the stock photo you posted. I still prefer the spokes though....

I voted 7189. Mine are 16x8.
I originally wanted 7089, but ended up with 7189 due to availability and my lack of patients. I'm glad I have the machined lip. After one day of rock crawl'n, I scuffed the lip pretty bad. Can't tell unless you're up close.
Good luck with the decision.![Thumb](https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/images/smilies/thumb.gif)
