Thinking About a Set of 18" Fuel Coverts In Anthracite

[Reddout99]

Looking at these wheels to replace my OEM 18" Overland wheels soon. For those of you that have them can you give me some feedback on how they have held up over time? Thanks

Depending how set you are with 18" wheels, 17" wheels will give you a much larger selection of tires.

I have 18s on mine now on new tires, so wanted to stick with that size

We had the Coverts but in red on my daughter’s JK and they held up just fine except for the red faded to an almost pink. They looked great at the beginning but after a couple of years not so much. I think you will be fine however with the anthracite.

I have 17” fuel covert in gunmetal. I’ve had them for about 2 1/2 years. I get compliments on them all the time. They stay pretty clean most of the time. However, if you do any off-roading, when you bump up against rocks, they will take chunks out of the faux bead-lock ring. Also, water gets trapped on the inside of faux bead-lock ring. As you’re driving, I’m sure the water gets slung out. Some brands have weep holes, for drainage. As beautiful as the Coverts are, at some point soon, I will replace them, with Icon Recon pros. Not to be confused with Icon Rebound pros. They have a replaceable rash ring. It comes in four sections. That way when you beat the piss out of them, you can replace the section that is damaged. But that’s only if you don’t like beauty marks. The best thing about either of the icon wheels I mentioned is, they have DOT compliant bead lock pins. You can lower your pressure to 8-10. “ The story till now” channel, put them to the test in the snow by airing down to zero. If you don’t do any off-roading, the Coverts in my mind, are a really good choice.

Thanks for that info. I really wouldn't be doing any rock crawling runs for sure. It's really just my daily driver with hitting the occasional off road trails
