My new bling....

[Stang5lgt]

I picked up these wheels and tires for less then 400 bucks. I couldn't pass up the deal.

 

[Stang5lgt]

Now I just need to make the Jeep look as good as the wheels. :gee:

 

[in4aride]

bling is very apprpriate term.....but it does look DAMN good on there....
simulated beadlocks im assuming?

 

[Stang5lgt]

Yes they are fake beadlocks. Next question should I get black of chrome center caps? I am going to 4 wheel parts to order them this week. Rims are 17x9 and tires 35/12.5/17.

 

[in4aride]

black w/crome lugs...oh ya!

 

[in4aride]

17x8's?

 

[Kiefer316]

i like them only cause of the black if they were all black i would steal them from you...
hahaha but i think crome caps are in order would make them stick out a little too... i would say those are not bling...

 

[Stang5lgt]

17x8's?

17x9

 

[DrMoab]

For Reference... I have a set of 17x9 black wheels with chrome caps. Different style but you get an idea of what it would look like.

 

[in4aride]

see def do chrome lugs...

 

[Stang5lgt]

I went with chrome.

 

[in4aride]

looks hella good....know of some damn new cooper st's for sale in your size...33's tjho

 

[Rockken]

I hate chrome. I had to get a chrome diff cover, cause nobody made a black one. I spray painted it black before it went on the heep.

I second that. I eliminated anything chrome or shiny on my jeep... even the antenna. :laugh:

 

[ColoradoRaptor]

Pretty slick!! Looks like ya got a very good deal!!eace:

 

[DutchVDub]

you need to get new lugnuts too now. Oh, and put some gloss paint on the jeep.

........maybe that metallic flake clear coat? Keep the same paint color just add speckles :cheers:

Last alloy rims I got took me forever to clean up from the crap they throw down on the streets in the winter. If you do not drive it everyday you won't have to worry about it.

Looks good though Stang! ..........then you look up and it looks like a bag lady wearing fancy shoes

 

[Stang5lgt]

The rims take attention away from the ugly Jeep. That is the point. I hate chrome lug nuts cause they rust. The center cap is made of plastic so I don't have to worry about that. When I get my sliders and few other things done I will give it a nice satin olive drab paint job with white star on the sides. You guys think I am made of time. One step at a time.

 

[in4aride]

if you want your rims to look good even when you go out in mud/snow...spray some WD-40 or brake clean on them....
its creates a film making the gunk just fall of....
just some of my.02

 

[Rockken]

Actually brake cleaner dissolves what ever grime, grease you spray it on and dries without leaving a residue.
