I like the look of the AEV and have always wanted them, but I just got my JK and don't need to replace the tires. Will the stock Rubicon tires fit ok on the AEV rims? Or will I have to get new tires? I guess the stock rim is 7.5" wide and the AEV rim is 8.5" wide. And by chance, does anybody have pictures of how this looks? Thanks in advance.

 

Which AEV rims?

Bottom line your tires will fit

 

From the AEV forum on the same question ...

 

I've hesitated getting them because I would want a 265-295 to put on them. Which wheel you leaning toward?

 

I'm looking at the black ones...

And thanks for the pictures!

 

No issues running stock Tires or even 37's on the AEV wheels

I'm unsure why folks dislike "drinking AEV kool-aid" when it comes to their wheels. Overall, I gotta believe they are the JKs best aftermarket option.

 

I'm curious... why do you think that?

 

You know- hub centric, recessed valve stem, materials used, appropriate offset, etc...

 

I was between the AEV and Rugged Ridge. I went RR.

RR is also hub centric. They've held up great the two years I've had them.

If I got beadlocks, they would have been AEV. I like their looks a lot.
