holy crap that is way more coverage than the Mopar ones. I'll take another photo at the same angle as yours tomorrow.

when you pull out the carpet plugs, can you see right through the floor onto the road? anybody have cold or road grime come up from this hole?
When you pull out the carpet plugs there are regular drain plugs underneath. Pull those out and snap the rubber mat down into where the plugs were. Then you can put the rubber plugs into the holes in the mats. All four of our JL's/Gladiator have them that way without issue. Just make sure you push the mat down into the body hole properly or you will get a fair amount of wind noise.

You can partially see the plug that is normally under the carpet in my mat here.

your wheel is upside down. Better put that red stripe at 12 O'clock so you know what's right and wrong, lol.

Looks sweet, is that permanent? Unlike plasti dip? Why dupucolor and not krylon fusion? Just curious.

It's not permanent, more like Plastidip. I've used plastidip in the past and it didn't work great and I found the Duplicolor custom wrap and it finishes very similar to a vinyl wrap. I did my SxS and it has lasted for months.

Links to purchase?
Got them at Quadratec. Comes with locking lugs as well. I called them to confirm that they would work on the Gladiatior and they confirmed that they were the correct lug nuts for the truck

Wow!!! What a wild, cool looking wheel! Never seen anything like it. I mean wow!
Thanks! I ordered them from BB wheels and was not exactly sure how they were gonna look but they turned out to be really cool. The centercap breaks down into 4 pieces and the round silver inserts are removable so they can be customized in many ways.
