I am dead set on 17” Rugged Ridge Wheels for my Sahara and was about to order them, but I feel bad “downgrading” it to 17’s. I told some people I am replacing the 18’s with 17’s and they think I am crazy.

Anyone regret going to 17’s from 18’s?

What are some of the best looking 18’s before I make this Rugged Ridge purchase?

 

I went from 18's to 17's and never looked back. As 17 is a more popular size, tires always seem to run cheaper and who can't use a little more sidewall.

 

More wheel choices, more tire choices, cheaper prices in both, more sidewall, etc. Going from 18 to 17 is a definite upgrade in my opinion.

 

Who cares what they think. It's your jeep, get what you want.

 

17s are definitly an upgrade from 18s. The extras rubber helps protect your rims and gives you more traction when airing down. 18s and bigger are mainlyl bling for mall crawlers.

 

If I could I would be running 15s instead of 16s but it was tuff finding them back in 07'. Just like the looks of lots of meat and less wheel....

 

LOL... I downgraded/upgraded from 17's to 15's depends on how you use your jeep.

 

X2 - Go with what YOU like!!

 

17"s look best on everything.

 

hummmm these 20s are tempting
