A few rain bands coming through not too bad yet.

Thundering here on the lake in Alabama, as I type this...

I saw in one of you’re pictures you live on the lake you have the underwater lights. Looks like a great set up Alabama Mud M

I don't have any underwater lights, but there's a few around me. Those bastards are expensive! I do plan on having some someday. Luckily I used to fish bass tournaments, so I can cast far enough, and get close enough to the lights that my neighbors have, to still catch fish on them.

My friend has the green lights on tiki island you should see the trout at night killing the bait fish

Wheel selection was really tough. I settled on the XD 137 FMJ rims and 37" Trail grapplers. Lift and other parts are all on back order so this is with no lift. But the electric rockslider steps are on.

I've posted my jeep on several other threads but wanted to show her off again. JTRLE

2" Mopar lift
37x12.5x20 Maxxis Razr on Black Rhino Abrams (custom colors)
5.13 Yukon gears

Love the drive, but the tires are load range F. It was between these and the STT Pros. Went with Maxxis because of the warranty and they are supposed to wear better than the Cooper's.

Thanks for checking it out.

My turn.......

We did 2 today.

Stock 33's wheels and tires off of my 2 week old Sting Grey Rubicon, were put on to the also 2 week old Gator Sport S Max tow.

Rubicon got new Black Rhino Shredder wheels gunmetal grey with black trim ring and new 35" tires.

I like the height, the stance, the look, the wheel colors.

I'm happy, to me its absolutely PERFECT!

Those shredders are nice! what size are those?

I have always been a huge fan of the original Rubicon Moab wheels on the first TJ Rubicons. I had them for awhile on my TJ. I always liked the wheels that came on my old POS 1982 Z28. I even like the wheels that come on the stock Sport S Gladiators, although too narrow.
I had some minor rubbing on my JTR the first time off road with the JL Rubi wheels and 35's. I saw these Rubicon Extreme wheels on sale on Qtec's site. What the heck. Not for everybody, but I like them. Kind of a cross between old beater Z28 wheels, TJ Moabs, and JT Sport S wheels!! Of coarse, I put the little "Jeep" center caps on them. Just 2000 miles, and this is the 3rd set of wheels on the JTR, including the original Subaru Crosstrek lookalikes.

So its been ONE WEEK since I got MY wheels done, and I had to do similar to the wife's Gladiator.....

When I got home last week she said.... "I WANT THAT!!!"

So she got 20" Black Rhino - "Madness" wheels. the color is dark tint with matte black lip.

They do kind of change colors in the middle, when you look at them at different angles and different light... they go from almost black, grey, to silver-ish?

Same exact tires, 35" Falken Wildpeak M/T. The wheel offset on mine +0... hers -12, otherwise all the same.

My post is number #85 and its one page before this on page 6.

I put the wheels next to each other in the garage and one of each..... Which is your favorite?

Thanks for looking!

Concur with everyone's inputs..... personal preference is what matters most. If you are doing any leveling or future lift - don't do it half-azz - do it....thereby, 35's is what you will likely want to consider. I regretted my TJ with 33's and a 3" lift. It never really looked right with dinky wheels.

I went with Fuel wheels on my Gladiator and they get raving compliments just about everywhere I go. I too have the white Rubi and the black/white really standout. Good luck!

Which rims are these?

 

[Benbean66]

Received my "sample" Fuel Shok wheel today to see hit it fit... For as much as I friggin love the look, Mr. PA Policeman will probably not share my enthusiasm. I will probably have to go with a smaller offset, and/or skinnier rim. These are 17x10 -18mm offset and they stick out 3-1/4" on my Max Tow.

Here is my Overland with 1.75" spacers and Rubicon takeoffs with 35*12.5*17

Looks just right imo

Looks just like them the real ones are made in China anyway.

Thanks for all the replies! I've been looking day and night trying to decide. I think I have decided on the wheels. The Raceline 932B Twist. Quick question for the group. I think I wanted -12 offset, but with all this COVID stuff, those are on backorder, as well as a lot of the wheels I liked. Would a positive 12 offset by good?

Thanks in advanced!
