Anyone running 17x8.5 -6 offset

[Ja87sm]

I’m looking at a set of wheels that are 17x8.5 with a -6 offset. 315/70r17 tires.

Anyone running something similar on their narrow axle? (I have a sport S 6mt)

Currently suspension setup is take off rubicon fox suspension with the steel bumper/tow package springs. 1.5” teraflex in front, .75” daystar in rear, mopar lift lca

If you have 3.73 gearing you may want to think on that a might . Thebfactory wheels are gonna be your best power unless you regear

17x8.5 -6 on 37s with 2” leveling up front and nothing in the back.

I appreciate it, I’m aware. They really placed these to a disadvantage with the stock 6mt/sport rear end gearing. I had 8A in my 2.0 2 door jl, 3.6 etorque 4 door jl and first JT.

I’m just shopping wheels now. I don’t want to go bigger than 315/70 or 35/11.5 at biggest.I have 285/70 JL rubicon wheels currently from my previous 2 door. I’ve even considered getting the quadratec morphic wheels in the same finish just to gain the offset.

Thank you for replying. The fitment is exactly what I thought it would look like based on calculators; I just wanted to physically see it.
