Wheel upgrade thoughts
Looking to upgrade my stock silver wheels on my Rock Lobster '13 Sport JK and I can't decide between a set of black Willys edition or a simulated beadlock style like the ProComp Series 7036. Looking for thoughts, opinions. Thanks!

I went for the ones that already had the tires on them I wanted. 2nd hand is often the cheapest route.
Aftermarket wheels usually have more backspacing for bigger tires. Stock wheels require a spacer if you want to go to up in size or else you will rub on parts..

this is very true. I had my eye on rubicon hard rock wheels for the longest time. finally found a set and my friend said nooo they wont look good...
Then I realized it wasn't his jeep
picked up a set of 5 for $400 and am waiting to put them on.
deciding on your wheel choice can be tough . it helps if you are good with photoshop.

I like the fake plastic rings that protect the aluminum.
