Wheels for JK - LOTS OF PICS!
We all know its hard to get wheels for our JK's. I've started to research all the possibilities to help me decide what to get, as well as other.
Just to let everyone know, I am ordering the 3.5" RE lift with 35" Dick cepek mud country tires. - can't wait! but i need good wheels!
Heres my JK showing off a few wheels that i found - mocked up on my stock tires... but you can use your imagination for my soon to come 35s.
They are all 17x9 or 17x8.5 - All have 4.5" backspacing, which is one of the hardest sizes to find. lots of 4.75" but RE and some other companies say they require 4.5" for an optimal setup. Wheather or not thats true, I dont know.
So Comment on the wheels that i have posted and send pics of other wheels i have missed. I can photoshop them on my jeep for a consistent comparisons, or just send in your own jeep.
You can see i'm leaning towards a black wheel, but post whatever you like, help out others by having all choices in one good thread!

Eracer76... you have 17"x9" with 4.75"BS wheels right??
RE told me not to go with that backspacing because it would have clearance issues.... do you have any issues or is it fine?
