What wheels are you putting on you JT?

[Ted Striker]

Any advice?

I am considering 35/12.50s for my Rubicon Gladiator and going to use a 8.5 or 9 x 17 rim. I want to keep the profile as close to stock as possible - meaning I dont want the tires to stock out past the fender flares. The largest positive offset on a wheel I like is 18mm. If the stock rim has an offset of 44.5mm, will my proposed set up stay under the flares? If not, how far past should I expect? I am considering the KMC XD 135 "Grenade" in matte black. Backspace is 5.71 inches. I also want to avoid a lift.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks, Striker. Lots of info on the diagram. Looks like I will be good as far as not sticking out past the fenders. Does the diagram suggest any other issues for clearance? Can you provide the source link please?

If I get a Gladiator it will be Gobi and I would powdercoat these to match:

Oh wow I love those! Old school steelie look without being steel.

I'd like to see pics of Sting gray with the standard wheel on the rubicon. Having a hard time deciding between standard and the factory upgrade. I'm thinking the standard granite color wheel and sting gray may not look good together? Hopefully these start shipping soon!

I thought the same, but couldn’t stomach the $900 upgrade cost for another factory wheel. I already have my Quadratec wheels and plan to sell my Rubi takeoffs to offset the cost. It’s almost like free wheels...

Below is the link I found. Man! They seem a bit pricey. I checked one of distributor sites and they had the wheels listed at $480+ per wheel...but they are awfully nice looking

Trying to narrow down a few wheels but I keep changing my mind (going on a Bright White Rubicon with 2" Mopar lift):
