DV8 886 in Bronze. I originally wanted black but the were backordered. I thought the bronze was going to be too overpowering but the pretty subdued. Very nice wheel and looks great IMHO. I also went with 35x12.50R17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. Wasn't sure about them but I REALLY like them so far. They track great and are VERY quiet. Really surprised me. I'm still waiting to see how they'll handle in the snow. BTW, the wheels and tires balanced out extremely well. I had one that only needed a half ounce weight. The most was 2 oz.

Where did you order your wheels from? I have been looking everywhere for these and they are all backordered.

Really dig your setup! Do you have any lift or leveling kit?

Not yet. It definitely would look better with a 2" up front and a 1" in the back. Not sure if I just going to do spacers or a true lift. This is my DD and will only see light trails. I have a TJ crawler for the hard trails. I'll tow it now with the Gladiator vs. driving to the trail now.

Since you asked for opinions (I know you didn't, but hey, I'll give it anyways), given that you have a Rubicon and only do mild trails, I'd do a spacer lift until the suspension needs refreshing, then do a full lift. The advantages are that you can make use of your stock suspension for a while, then upgrade when there are more options available. Not that the lifts out now are not good, but having more options is better; plus you can hear more real world experience from others.

Just my 2 cents. You can put it in the mail; I accept cheques.

Edit: oh, and my opinion would be different if you were planning to do harder wheeling.
