Default How many hours did you put into wheel research

I am at the point of obsession lol. Found a few that I liked in the price range I liked but they either are out of stock or out of production. Been on the search for many hours, don't want to fess up to how many but lets just say the wife thinks I'm crazy . I think I have settled on ATX AX181's, 18x9 4.5 BS. Will be lifting the New JKUR as soon as I get it home, its still waiting in line for production. Going with some 35" Terra Grappler MT's. I picked my lift faster than I picked wheel tire combo haha.

Owning a silver Jeep, I only really liked matte silver or black rims with machined diameters. I spent a lot of time searching for wheels. The hardest part was finding one with the correct backspacing. In the end, though, I ended up having to use spacers, so I should have done a bit more :/

Gotta go with your gut man. The wheels are some of the first things people notice, and you will notice. If you like them, get them, or just save up for the ones you really want.
