Exclamation MB Razor wheels question

does anyone know if the 15x8 MB Razor wheels will clear the stock 2007 unlimited brake size/setup? I am in desperate need of new wheels and tires, but someone had recently told me that these wheel may not fit.

any help is greatly appreciated!

Yes they will clear. If in doubt, PM the Discount Tire rep.

Discount checked all their 3.75 bs 15 inch wheels on the jk to make sure they fit... They are a forum sponcer so you can pm and ask if you are worried...

I went through the same thing when I bought my 15s from them... Everyone on the forums, 4x4 shop, jeep buddies etc suggested I not get them bc of clearance issues.. But discount said they would fit and they did...

I think there are some 15s that won't fit from another company so jk owners generally just avoid 15s to be safe

Yes... The oem lugs are too wide to reuse.

If I could do it again I would get this instead

Gorilla Automotive 21783Q23BC - Gorilla Automotive Products Spline Drive Lug Nut Kit - Quadratec

That kit gives you a socket that works for the locking nuts as well as the non locking ones
