Default Which Rim model is this?



This is the rim off of the Pro-Comp Steel Blue JK at SEMA. I know that it is a **89, but I don't know what the ** should be. I really like the Nickel-Black Chrome look.

I know it is a Pro Comp rim, I'm trying to find out which specific model it is. 1089 is the chrome version, but this one has a different finish on it.

Default black nickle finish

That wheel does look sharp in the Black Nickel finish. My experieice with black nickel is that the finish is not durable at all. You can clearly see any and all scratches, unlike a chrome or silver nickel finish where the scratches blend in. The black seems more prone to flaking also due to how thin it is. So if your gonna off road I would reconsider.

It looks like this is a 9089 from procomp's website. ( http://www.procomptires.com/pxa9089.html ) It is called the Knight-chrome finish.
