Gah ya beat me to it. I've had the same wheels here for weeks waiting on Jeep to pull their heads out of an area known to smell.

Haha, you get full credit for having them 1st.. in fact, it was ur pic of the wheel that made me pull the trigger on mine

They look great. Glad I get to see them on something sting gray before I paid to have them mounted tho. Very nice looking rig.

@bcd offroad can you post a down the side pic? Curious how far they stick out past the fender. I was shooting for not much when i picked them.

I’ll post a pic, I also chose them in part because of the +6 offset.. they do stick out a little further then I would have thought, I like the stance however... I am glad I didn’t go with one of the -offsets that were in the running

That looks about perfect. Half in less would be ideal but I didn't find any +20 wheels I liked. It'll throw a bit of water and muck but not too bad.
Those - offset wheels stick out wayyyy to far

I am a newer gladiator owner I am anxiously awaiting the install of my 17x9 wheels with +12 offset (5.5 bs) next week. Your pics are the closest thing I could find to my desired result since lots of guys on here are running neg offsets (not hating) . I am wondering if your gladiator is a max tow with the wider axles or not. I have an overland and am excited/impatient to see how my stance will look. Hoping my setup will have a similar stance to yours. Looks awesome. I appreciate any input thanks

Hey, sorry for the slow reply, busy couple days.... yes max tow, to be honest I didn’t realize max tow had a wider axle, I thought that was just the rubicon... any way, these wheels are a +6 offset.. so I would think ur look would be similar depending on your tire width, my tires are 12.50 but are on the more narrow side compared to other brands I’ve run with the same labeled width..

Thanks for the quick reply. No worries at all, I just posted my question late last night /early this morning.

Thanks so much. No apologies you replied to my post in less than 24hrs.really appreciate you taking the time. That gives me a pretty accurate idea of what mine will look like. Correct me if I'm wrong or missing something. From what you've told me, I believe your wheels are 8.5, mine being 9. You have 5 in backspace, I'm 5.5 so it's a wash on the other side of the hub. You are running a 12.5. Mine will be an 11.5 so I'm sucked in toward the truck 1/2 in more than you. Also, your axle being 1.5 wider/longer, I'll be sucked in another 3/4 of an inch. So my tires/wheels will be approx 1.25 inches more sucked in than yours. That's exactly what I was shooting for wanted them right at the edge of the wheel well (didn't want rocks flying outside the well) . Thanks again for the input. I'll sleep better until Tues when I can see the real deal after my install.. Thanks again

Ended up going with something totally different than the other 4 wheels I posted earlier in this thread...and I couldn't be happier! Was afraid that they would stick out from the fender too far since they are -18mm offset, but after they were installed, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

what kind are those
