Awesome! Thanks for posting your pictures xerofall. Your Jeep looks great in contrast to the redrock.

Default I like this one better....

Funny, I was thinking of "downsizing" to a 15" wheel right after I get back from Iraq...

How about 5 of these wheels plus a set of 35"x12.5 KM2's for the $1500 you quoted for the other wheel? What is the backspacing and availability of this one?

PM me if you can throw a deal my way, I would buy at the July though, due to be home in Aug sometime.

I haven't test fit these yet but I'll do some digging on them. This is a brand new wheel and, if they clear the brakes, this could be another great 15" option. These look like they'd run a little more for the package but it looks like I have them in stock and ready to ship. I'll work on getting some more information and I'll post up what I find. Thanks for thinking about us. We look forward to helping you.

Thank you for what you do. Come home safely!

Default 16x8.5

Hey, I have a quick question.
What happened to your 16"x8.5 MB Wheels 72 in black for JK's (16X8.5 5-127 -6MTB)?
I can only find it in machined finish...

I am finally getting the money together for wheels and tires
and I was checking out your website just to make sure you still got em ... and ...

... I cannot find this wheel any where anymore, you used to have it...
Did you stop selling the wheel in this size, or am I just a lil blind?

Please let me know; thanks.

I should be able to order them in for you. Price is the same as it is for the machined finish I am not sure why they don't show on our site anymore. I'll shoot an email to our wheel department to see if we can list them again. Thanks for the question. Give us a call when we can help you with your order.

Yeah, I just heard that as well. Hard to keep a great tire in stock I guess. I believe we can order in the Yokohama MT+ right now. Looks like we also have the Hankook RT03 and the Nitto Mud Grapplers ready to ship. If you can't wait the 6 weeks give Danny a call again and I'm sure he can work something out with you.

i actually decided to keep the 16s we have and placed an order with danny for the KM2 in a 35 (just bought the 33s from you back in december). just waiting to hear back from whoever handles the paypal payments for you.
