Raceline Raptor wheel
Anyone running these wheels. National tire and wheel say they should fit a JK. 4.75 backspacing on the 16" wheel. just looking to see if someone has pics of them on their jk.

The wheel looks nice and all but if you plan on doing any mods to the suspension or getting bigger tires, the 4.75 BS will be too much and will rub on sharp turns. I'd get a wheel with no more than 4.5 BS so youll have no rubbing issues and you never know what you will want to do to you JK in the future. This way youre not stuck with having to buy new wheels.

There are just a million choices out there, those Raceline Wheels are pretty sweet, I am inspired to look at more wheels now. Especially since i am getting new 35s soon, let the games begin
I know a guy who has those on his 07 X with 35s and a Skyjacker Kit, but it sits under a tarp all winter. I wish i could poach some pics of it and post them
