I’m looking for an opinion on the stock wheels and BF Goodrich AT That come with the willy’s edition. I have an opportunity to pick up a set with 800 miles on them with the tpms installed.

what is a good price?

do they ride nice on the highway? I currently have the Sport S with max tow stock set up

how do they compare in value/ aesthetics to the upgraded rubicon polished silver?

thanks

Ive got a willys and love the look of the rims and tires. The tires do make a rumble at low speed and hum at highway.... but I like it.

so, not a smooth as the touring/sport or overland... but look great.

you don’t see the Willys take offs often,keep An eye out and would consider grabbing a set as spares... I’d think replacemt price would be close to 2000. From what I see near new Take offs for sports being 4-500... likely due to the number of them...rubicons often 1,200-1500 at the top end.

so, 1,200 and up or dow a few hundred is my best guess

I replaced the stock All Seasons on my Sport S with the BFG Dueller A/T's, and I've been very happy with them. I didn't notice that they make any more noise than the A/S, but they have a LOT better traction on snow & wet.
The WIllys wheels are a black version of the Sport S wheels, which are a dime a dozen.
I wouldn't pay more than $600-range for them, but then I'm cheap.

Sorry Kevin, you're incorrect about the Willys wheels. The top JT is a Sport S. The bottom is the Willys.

I bought take offs of a 2020 Willys Wrangler. I love the look on my sport. I paid 1k for 5 wheels and tires.

The guy took them off as soon as he bought the Jeep. They had the sensors in them and linked right up to my JT with no issues. Only issue now is trying to get rid of my sport wheels.They have a bit of a rumble at low speeds and you can definitely hear them on the highway but its nothing obnoxious.

OK, I stand corrected.
I could've sworn that, when I was looking at the Build Your Jeep website yesterday, the Willys wheels were just a black version of the Sport S wheels. That'll teach me to try and see details on my phone!
Thanks!

In the hierarchy of wheels I think I like these better than standard JT rubicon wheels but not sure if I like them as much as the rubicon polished silver wheels

I like the Willys better than the polished Rubicon wheels, but prefer the Rubicon standard ones over all 3. That’s the thing about aesthetics. It’s entirely subjective. I do think most would agree the Willys wheels look great though and the whole color/black scheme really works for that trim.
