Well, the day is finally arriving. I am picking up my Sting Gray Rubicon at Tri-City tomorrow. I hope to add the bumper, winch and lift the day after I return, then tires and wheels the following day. Here’s what’s going on the first phase: Hansen bumper and Smittybilt winch from my JK, Daystar 2” lift, Quadratec Recon wheels, and 37” Nitto Ridge Grapplers. Rock sliders and rear bumper will come next, then a more advanced suspension as more options are available.

How do you like the recon rims? Thinking of upgrading my sport s rims but I’m not sure how different they will look. I’m not sure how backspacing and offset work. Trying to find out the sport s rim specs to compare.

Sorry for the delay. For the money, I am extremely happy with the Recon wheels. I believe stock wheels are +44, and these are +11. That means the centerline of this wheel/tire sits 33mm (around 1.25”) more outboard.

Any issues with rubbing at full turn with the 37in tires on Recon wheels? Looking to run the same set up on my Overland once it comes in.

No rubbing at all on any suspension components. I haven’t had it off road yet to test clearance with the fenders.
