How long did you keep your stock wheels?

[69charged]

The next day. I still have 3 of the stock wheels for sale. Can’t even give them away!!
I think they are nice, just don’t need ‘em.

I agree. I kept the stock 285/70/17 Faulkens on our JL and added more-aggressive offset Quadratec Morphics and it looks great. I think you'll like the look.

These are in my top three right now. I love the black and subtle styling. Not to mention they seem to be made specifically for our vehicles. Thank you for the pic.

Mine are sitting out back with ~42k on them. They look really small when they're on with my lift.

The only regret - missed opportunity, actually - was the Walmart tire fiasco a couple years ago. I was on vacation and missed the online price mistake for Kenda Klever tires.

Keeping the oem Rubicon wheels
Swapped to Nitto Trail Grappler 35x12.5x17 at 3k
Just lifted, regeared and went to Nitto Ridge Grappler 38x11.50r17 after wearing out the 35s at 36k miles

Mine left as soon as I could get them off. I had new wheels and 37s on before my first oil change.

9 months in and still rocking my Basic Sport steel wheels. Did go to 285's and installed some 4.10 wide axles that pushed them out and am currently happy with them. Not in a rush to swap them out for now.

If one was a match to my 25's wheels, I'd buy one. I want a 5th matching wheel.

I replaced the wheels on both the JTRD and the JTM as soon as they arrived. I am a big fan of the TeraFlex Nomad wheel with the built in deflator and valve stem protector.

Hello all. I haven’t been on here long. I recently purchased a ‘25 Rubicon. Naturally, I want to upgrade a few things. Wheels are a definite at some point. That being said, I don’t think they look too bad. It seems everyone on this forum has upgraded wheels. My question is, how long did you guys have your trucks before spending money on wheels? And a side question, does anyone still use their stock Rubicon wheels?

Quite a while. 2 years I think. Not until trails started going after my valve stems did I swap them out. Other things were more important to me than wheels.

I still have them and will keep them until they become too beat up and/or faded. Then I´ll just probably have them refurbished. 59,600 miles on them now.

I got my Methods and 315s as soon as I could . then upped them to 37s. Sold the factory wheels for 140$. Then gave the 285s to a friend along with the 315s. My friends are waiting for me to do 40s.I have given away springs, shocks, and lots of other stuff. I must admit that the BFG KOs in 37 are the best ever.

1 1/2 years, then replaced with a cheap takeoff set from a Wrangler Rubicon.

I ordered mine with the upgrade wheels because I was going to, “Leave it alone”. I really like the Mopar bead lock wheels and ordered a set the first week. My plan to leave it stock went South from there.

I bought a new Sport S in 2024 that was pretty well loaded for a Sport S, and started shopping for take-off Rubicon wheels/tires maybe six months later.

I somehow ended up with the whole 2025 Rubicon inside of one year. I think I’m done for a while. Plus I’ve been busy spending money on a motorcycle in the mean time.
