I agree! Search around the forum for "15 wheels" and you'll find many past discussions on the topic. Some work well, others don't. Some lose weights, others don't. In regard to guaranteed fitment, it's smarter for a retailer to tell a customer to stick with 16s or 17s rather than order 15s and have that person come back disappointed or complaining.

Do your homework and have fun shopping for wheels. Took me a loooong time to decide, but I had a great time doing my research.

Been running 15's on my 2011 for over 10 k miles no problem. Depends on the wheels and backspacing not the vehicle year.

17s and 33s look good but 17s and 35s look better lol. It's your jeep, it all looks great to me as long as it's a jeep.
