Anyone running Steel wheels - either stock oem wheels, set of spares or otherwise? Got any pics?

Mopar. I have weathertech on my new truck now.

WeatherTec in this pic ? I think they look even better compared to the Mopar. They seem to appear bigger but not as thick and bulky looking. Great choice... do you remember the part#... I have a couple 18 wheel accessory shops around and was think of getting a set and trimming them to fit, but a direct fit might be easier...

Yeah weathertech. Did Sport rear and Rubicon front. I like the look and they fit my ecodiesel rear exhaust unlike most others.

Part# 110097 front
Part# 120113 rear

I saw a video on Youtube that had factory steelies and some kind of center caps. I'll check my history and see what I can find.

I ran steelies for a bit but switched because I could not find center caps.

There is a post on the forum somewhere (i didnt save it) where a guy used some center caps from some old steel TJ wheels he had laying around. That being said, I figure the ones from current JT steel wheels should work. I may try it...

I thought the same thing but once I looked at the wheels I realized there was no method to attach center caps. The centers are fully dished and there are no tabs to hook to. Find full proof before you invest in wheels because I gave up trying to find center caps. .

Aren't they primarily held on by the lug nuts? This style...

good to know.. I also have the diesel, what yr ? mine is 22, just curious if fitment is the same between years ? I really only wanted the fronts so the door hinges don't get so chipped up, but looks more evened out with front and rear....
also,
would you mind posting/sending me closer pics of the fitment(front/rear & back and front of flap) Pics on the websites are generic looking. I want something to protect me from rocks because of a little poke from my wheels, so I might need something that extends from the fenders just a little more, just hard to tell from pics online... is there any room for adjustments or is it pretty much a straightforward fit to line up with the mounting holes ?
Thanks !

I think they look way better without caps, to me that's part of the look.

I agree. Though I might shoot the center caps with some galvanizing paint while the wheels are off just to prevent rust.
