Why would you need to return the wheels. Load range E doesn't matter, the tires you got only weigh like 64lbs a piece, they are on the lighter side of the 35's. That's not going to make a difference at all. 37lb steel wheels that will last longer that alloy wheels and are easier to fix if they get damaged. Sounds like a win to me

To be honest, i did zero research and just went by what I was told, that it was a heavy tire caused by the load rating. Guess i gotta fact check shit before repeating it huh?

Been running these for a year.
They look cool.
I get LOTS of compliments.
The powder coat is SUS at best....after a year they are faded
Heavy as hell.
Show trail wear a bit too much
Not a fan of the plastic center cap...should be a better material.

Personally, I like Black Rhino, specifically the Armory wheels. We did a Tundra build with these wheels and I think they looked awesome

If had a choice. DOT approved bead locks! Look good. Not to busy. Can't decide black or titanium! Second choice. Black ? arsenal, armory? Maybe

Not fan of black wheels. A nice machine finish is my choice. Method has a beautiful machine finish clear coated. I like the Double Standards.

Of the list, American Racing makes a solid wheel. Or at least, they used to. Otherwise I would shy away from most of those. I'm pretty picky about wheels though. Right off the bat if it's not hub centric I'm pretty much out.

Methods seem pretty decent but I've never run them on anything myself.

I'm really curious about Fifteen52, I like their clean look on some of them, and they just seem like a fresh take.

I had a set of Mickey Thompson Classic wheels once that were cheap and light and had a pretty good powder coat on them for the price point. Don't think I'd put them through heavy trail use and abuse but they were a great year-round street wheel.

Hutchinsons are beast.
Trail Ready are beast.
AEV are beast.
Mopar, OEM stuff is almost always a pretty solid choice.

OZ is my favorite wheel manufacturer but not really in the right segment...

I ordered black rhino and for three or four months, CJ Pony parts stringed me along saying it would ship next week, two weeks, etc. I went to discount tire and they are awesome. The guy spent a good amount of time finding a rim I liked just as much as the rhinos. I love my fuel rims. I painted the rings to match my Gobi and now they are perfect. They were also holding onto my tires for months while I was waiting on CJ. Discount Tire are great.

"Bro wheels" lol I guess I am late to the party but that is the first time I have heard that term. I am leaning towards Black Rhinos but going to run with the stock for awhile.

 

[Zissou]

none of those lol
I bought RockTrix personally, but I was very interested in the AEV Plinters. I'm all about the specs; gotta have the right offset and be lower weight. Not trying to make this truck any slower lol

edit for pics

Thank you for posting the outstanding photo of your Gladiator with new tires and wheels. We appreciate the kind shout out to your local Discount Tire store.

I love the color matching on the Fuel wheels, well done.

I am using the Method "Bead Grip" 703. I like them a lot for the following reasons:

1. Bead Grip technology works. I air down to 10-11 psi on all the badge of honor Big Bear trails with no issues at all.
2. They are light wheels - approx 26 lbs
3. The are painted a flat black that is easy to touch up after scraping them on the rocks. All 4 of my wheels have many black touch ups and nobody notices.
4. They are not expensive

Been looking at these lately.

I also recently learned brodozer was a term thrown around for those giant lift trucks with polished wheels.

I went with Fuel Tactic wheels. The KMC Dirty Harry would’ve been my next choice.
