Kinda hard to tell but it's a good 1.5," I was a little worried about it but actually really like how they turned out.

Looks good! A lot of people underestimate what a level/small lift and a set of wheels and tires will do to improve the looks of a truck...Not to mention the extra function. :like:

These look great! I don't even have my JT yet...still waiting for it to show up but I ordered these KMC wheels in the matte bronze:

These were one of the few wheels I was able to find with a positive offset. I went with 17x8.5 and a +18 offset. My JT is Stingray....I went back and forth trying to decide on black vs bronze wheels and decided on the bronze.

I hope so! The other bonus is that this wheel was actually quite a bit cheaper than some of the other options I looked at from AEV and others. Also, I have hardly seen anyone on this forum running this wheel, and none in the wild so it should be a little unique.

Do you know what the weight is on these? My first choice is the AEV savegre but I really don’t want to add that much unspurng rotating mass.

Supposedly the weight for this wheel is 31 lbs, which I was a little disappointed by. As a comparison the AEV Borah is 33lbs, and the Savegre II is 31lbs.

Looking at these wheels and no one can tell me how the bead lock works. Do they have beadlocks? Can you use them without the bead lock? If you don't use the beadlock is the ring going to stick out away from the tire? Is there any real reason not to use the beadlock? Please clarify for me. They are often listed as "simulated bead lock"
Thanks

Hey everyone I am taking delivery of a White 2021 Sport S with max tow this week and want to replace 17” rims and tires. I am new to this forum and would like input on tire sizes. I Don’t want monster tires (stock are 31.5” dia.) so 33s? I know there are issues with “offset” on the wider Dana axles.
thanks!
