Anyone else think the 2013 rubicon rims look bad?

When I first saw the pictures, I didn't like them. In person, they're not so bad.

I actually really dig the little Jeeps on the wheels as well.

I personally think that theu should have a a soccer moms jeep with a the luxury parts, and then a mans jeep with all the offroad stuff like a saraha or rubicon... Anyone agree?

Default Can't say that I am a fan....

they are a bit too busy, lacking the clean, simple lines of the moab and canyon rims.

They don't look as bad as some of the other Jeeps at my local dealer right now. Chrome spokes anybody?
They may end up having a large following in the new little trendy jeep community that seems to have popped up in the last few years but on the trail those things with all there complex risen edges and angles are nothing. But boulder fodder...just because they painted a little jeep on those wheels does not mean they belong on one,those things are mall rated for sure...

They look like they a stamped steel wheel.
Very ugly & cheap looking.

'Jeep', and a Jeep side view, on every wheel ?

And that, IN ADDITION to the 'Jeep' on the front, 7 (seven) more times which are seen from the driver seat, plus the Jeep grill on the windscreen...

That's 1 Jeep with 11 times the word 'Jeep' on it, plus the grill on the window, plus 4 side views...

That's NUTS, Chrysler. That's silly and undignified.

Not sure what all the fuss is all about. Most the people on here run a after market rim anyways.

I didn't like them at first. I picked up a set for my '13 Sahara. They look so much better than the Sahara pizza cutter wheels.
