I'm seriously considering AEV Borah wheels for the JK I like the machined onyx finish but they only make them for the JK.
I live in snow country and am worried about snow and road sand getting all over the JT.
Anyone running these and care to share the photos of the offset?
Thanks Scratch

It's your lucky day...

So I never "ran" them but I did buy the JK Borah wheel when I was shopping for wheels because I thought I'd like the "Spent Brass" color and the JK offset was the only option. I ended up not liking the color but did take pics of the poke as I was also curious of fitment. This is all I got...

I have the Savegre II wheels which are the same spec as the Bora, 17x8.5 +25 offset. They don’t really extend beyond the fenders at all, I am running 35x10.5 tires though, with a 12.5 wide tire they may extend a little more but should be fine in any state if inspection or tire extending beyond the fender is an issue. Tons of pictures on AEV’s site as well.

Excellent! Thanks They appear to stick out quite a bit on the wider JTR axles.
Im not really worried about inspection its more about the snow and road sand all over everything

It looks like @Mac has the appropriate JL/JT offset of +25mm though.

Remember that the JK Borah wheel is only a +4mm offset which gives you more poke.

I have the black JL/JT specific wheels currently on my JTR and the poke is very minimal

+4 is going to give some poke, I have +6, decided to add fender flares which almost completely cover my tire. Im happy with the overall look
