Little backstory, I bought my Rubicon Gladiator used with and it already had the XD wheels mounted up.

I Iove my Gladiator, but I'm still torn on the wheels. I don't hate them per se, but they have more offset than I would have chosen. I've also never been a huge fan of faux beadlocks and plus they annoyingly hold water. I am a big fan of bronze wheels but I think they look best on silver and grey color vehicles.

So I did these crude photochops on my phone to have you guys help me decide!

And yes...I know I'm crazy.

Figured I'd add the offsets for people:
  1. XD FMJ136 -18
  2. Mopar wheels +12
  3. Fuel Shok D666 +20 (18" wheel)
  4. AEV Savegre +25
  5. KMC Dirty Harry +18
  6. Method 313 +25

The XDs do look the best on your JT but I understand what you mean by the offset being too negative. If you are keeping the gray, red, and black accents that come with the Rubicon emblems/decals, why not consider the Fuel Shoks in gray/gunmetal/anthracite color? It’ll complement your Rubicon colors well and will give you the more positive offset you desire.

Thanks Trauma, I agree. The current wheel looks best against the white/red Rubicon colors. The fuel shoks differ in size availability between the bronze and gunmetal. For some reason only bronze bronze is offered an in an 18x9 +20. I'm not seeing it under the other color.

Dirty Harry and the D666 have my votes - can't go wrong with either IMO :rock:

The 18x9 Shok in bronze is offered in ET+20, ET+1, and ET-12 in the 5-5 PCD, according to the manufacturer spec sheet at least.
