Last night i bought Fifteen52 analog wheels for the old school look i saw after i bought those wheels last night, that Quadratec had them for 68 dollars off each ☹ so i called Northridge and told them if they could match it or refund my money. And they checked it out & said yes sir I’ll refund you $350.00 might take a couple of days but man happy Valentine’s Day huh . Northridge4x4 been doing me a great service.

Congrats but I really like your AEV Borahs. Much classier wheel. But I get it that you are probably tired of the Borah look as if I remember correctly they carried over from your JK.

They are overkill for my needs, and cutting back on weight per wheel. Yes they were on my JK for less than 6 months before i bought this Gladiator.

Understandable. The Borahs are somewhat heavy. Be sure to post pics here once you get your Fifteen 52s mounted.

Difference in weight AEV 46# & Fifteen52 are 27# . I would probably only tell when heavy towing.

Love the wheels but I have 2 complaints is all about them. 1- they hold water due to the lip/fake bead lock. Not a big issue just more of a nuisance. 2- the -18 offset sticks out a bit farther than I wanted but I wanted the wheels so I deal with it. Anyhow great looking rig you have built!

This is my exact complaint with XD FMJ 137's. They stick out further than I wanted and the faux beadlock holds water. My truck came with them on it. I'm planning to do a wheel swap this spring to rectify this issue.

Does anyone have pictures of bronze wheels with the Gator colored Glads?

Just ordered (not my pic) $185 each shipped plus ebay tax, so $1k for 5 wheels.
That's a great deal. Can't wait to see them on your JT.

Thank you. Agree on the water but not the offset. The -18 spec is necessary to achieve the backspace needed for my MetalCloak lift with 17x9.5 wheels, and the width looks better to me with my lifted Gladiator, which I felt needed a wider stance to go with the increased hight. Your JT looks great, too.

Love the semi debadged look. Sting Gray is an amazing color (my JL is Sting Gray). The Fuel wheels complement Sting Gray well.
