Okay so my birthday is coming up and i'm in need of new rims! Ill be running the sTock sahara tires so the rim needs to be 18". Suggestions please!

Prefer:
Black
Not too expensive

Thanks guys!

 

I think your limited by the 18's. I think you'll find a lot more in smaller diameters.

 

I would have recommend the Pro-Comp series 97 rims. They are black, look really great, have good back spacing, and best of all are cheap

But, unfortunately, from browsing around 4WD's website it looks like they may only come in 15, 16, and 17 inch varieties

As was stated above, if you could at all possibly hold off until you can do both tires and wheels you'd be better off going with a 16 or 17 inch rim/tire combo IMHO.

 

Okay thanks!
Thanks for the info man, i really want a combo but $ is a factor lol

 

I completely understand

If you are running the stock Sahara tires, have you thought about picking up a set of Rubicon take offs? I've seen 5 rubi tires and wheels go for between $500 and $700 dollars on the forum, and those tires alone a great step up from anything the Sahara or X/Sport models left the factory with.

Just a thought, otherwise I am sure someone has stayed with their 18s and has some good rim recommendations.

 

look at procomps. not too expensive and they make tons of 18's.

 

Paint or have your existing wheels powder coated. As mentioned, you don't want to stay in the 18s forever and when the time comes to get tires you can nearly pay for your new wheels with the cost difference going to 17s.

 

I agree with jpop - powdercoating is a viable option. However, you need to look at discounttiresdirect.com as well as craigslist. Both have some awesome deals and Discount Tires have some wheel combos that will make you think of doing the combo vs. just wheels. Good luck.

I agree with JPop but if you really want rims check out the Procomp 7089, I believe that they come in an 18" with proper backspacing for you.
