Name That Rim

[USMC_1Wire6337]

I am going to check out these wheels tomorrow. 17x9, 0 offset, and 5x5 bolt pattern. I can't seem to find them anywhere to get information and reviews. Anyone run these? Will they would well with 315/70r17's on Sport S with max tow? Thanks!

I guess follow up question would be, are these good for $600 for 5? I am going to look at them tonight and I think they would go great with my Sport S Gobi and Kenda Klevar 315s that are coming. Whole lot better then the silver Sport wheels in my opinion and fit my Gobi and Black scheme I am going to go for.

Get a part number off of one of them. It is a sharp looking wheel but it didn't come on a JT.

Seller said they are Mammoth wheels with a Jeep center cap. Closest I could find is https://www.extremeterrain.com/mamm...r-beadlock-style-black-wheel-17x9-jg1259.html.

I agree they look great. Reviews on all their wheels are good and the price seems right.

Checking Mammoth's site, those wheels are rated at 1521#.

According to TSW (affectionately called Terribly Soft Wheels):

The load rating of a wheel, as determined by the wheel manufacturer, must never be exceeded. Manufacturers identify a wheel’s maximum load rating and tire diameter by checking the back of the wheel or with the wheel manufacturer. If the load rating is not available the wheel should not be used on the vehicle. Wheel load rating requirements are determined by dividing the vehicles heaviest gross axle weight rating by 2. The axle weight rating for most vehicles is shown on the identification label located on the driver’s side door jamb, gas tank door, truck lid or glove compartment.

As a point of reference, my Rubicon's heaviest GAWR is 3750#. So a wheel, at minimum, should have a load weight rating of 1875#.

That is exactly the info I need and would have missed. Thank you!!! Going to ask the seller what the wheel weight rating is since it is not an exact match to what I found. Since they seem to be geared towards Wrangler (sold as set of 5), I am betting they are the same. That sucks since I really like them, but want to be able to tow still and that would definitely overload the wheels.

Quadratec has a similar wheel, the Rubicon Extreme; it doesn't have the fake bead lock look, but the same spoke look. 2100# rating, iirc. And it comes in black.

That does look nice. Just got a lead on some upgraded Mojave wheels with 800 miles on them for $200. Going to check on them tonight. Might have to go with the Rubicon Extremes or the Recons if it falls through.

I was part of the group that bought the Walmart tires, so am trying to upgrade stock Sport S wheels on the Gobi that isn't here yet. Trying to avoid sleeping in the garage if possible.
