Wheels

[levi11]

Looking for wheels. What wheels look good on an XJ? Give me your opinion. I've been looking at the pro comp 7089 in black. Something other than a black steel wheel.

Go to tirerack.com and select your vehicle, then when you click on a wheel it will show it on the car... or go to the jeep picture thread and browse around, but black steelies are the king around here

Check out Discount Tire, they have a good selection of Black Rock and other wheels. They make a nice steelie and some good looking (IMO) aluminum wheels. They'll usually set you up with a discount if you buy wheels and tires together, too...

Dodge magnum/charger wheels in 17" flavor look good if you have a lift and running at minimum a 31" tire, better with 33"+.

Was at the jy yesterday, there were a couple factory alloy rims on a late model WJ that looked real sharp. Would have grabbed them but there were only 3 and one was chipped real bad.

AR23.

I like Mickey Thompson Classic. IMHO is harder to bored of traditional designs.

Thanks for the help guys

I run soft 8's. Yes they are common but I beat up on mine regularly and they are less than $50 a wheel.

I personally like my ford ranger edge wheels in the 16" variety

 

[blenny]

What the bs on those ranger wheels?

 

[Tacedaddy]

better than stock wheels, dont rub the control arms with 32's

WJ wheels won't fit an XJ unless you change the bolt pattern away from stock.

AR23.

this! hands down my favorite non-beadlock wheel. if you want to go beadlocks I like the racelines or methods.

I seem to like JK Moabs. Cheap on Craigslist. Only thing is you need an adapter to run them.

Or the AR23s like mentioned. Those are nice.

If you want aluminum wheels the Dodge Charger/Chrysler 300/Dodger Magnum have wheels that will work. Don't know the back spacing, but close to stock as they stick about 1/4" more than stock. IIRC a few people have also used the steel wheels off them as well.

17s:

If I were to buy a set of wheels I would go with factory jeep or dodge wheels& spacers, I hate dealing with centercaps(rusty/corrosion)

 

[Talyn]

What wheels don't have center caps?

 

[Vanimal]

move out of a place that sucks, rusty centercap problem solved!

Yeah I remembered that the other day. I guess if you are doing the WJ front end swap stuff it could be good.

The 7089's are a nice wheel, and not too expensive. I had the polished version on my Tacoma and liked them very much.
