Would never put anything like these on a Jeep. More for a tuner car. The last one reminds me of a wheel that enkei makes.

I am a fan of the "fat six".

I have the RPf1s on my daily driver, so I guess I enjoy "tuner wheels".


Personally I would go with any of them if they were under 25lbs and gunmetal. Tired of all the black/chrome combos with fake rivets and such.

Just some ideas.

See if they can take the 6-spoke and 7-spoke wheels and "scallop" out the middle of the spokes like on this oem Grand Cherokee wheel. I think it would make it less tuner looking.

Still not feeling it. To me they just do not look like "Jeep wheels". They seem to be stuck in the tuner mindset. Some wheels are really hard to picture unless you can see them with the vehicle specific offset and on the vehicle. Any chance they could start photoshopping them on a Jeep with the offset for the Jeep?

THAT is a nice lookin' wheel!

Might have to go with those instead of the Pintlers I've been eyeing. What's the right size for JKs? Spacers needed?

The ZX is bolt on. No spacers needed. Excellent offset/backspace and width for the JK. This is an awesome design. It also has an optional bolt on scratch guard - great feature for those that actually hit the trails.

Thanks for the comments. They have different styles they are working on as well. I think they are going for a little more of the TE37, Volk Off road wheel look for this one. Not all of their concept wheels are styled like this.
