Black Rock or Cragar
Which ones do i want. Both gonna be 15x8s with 4in backspace. Within 10 dollars of each other and i cant decide. i know i like the D Windows better. I have the cragar d windows in a stock size 15x7 with stock backspace and they rusted within a year or two.. so any ideas about the black rocks if they rust or not?

yes but it will be really hard to find the right size needs the same bolt pattern backspace and width or else there not going to help.. i dont want to mount a 32/11.50 on a 15x7 because my 30/9.50 already rub on the control arms when i turn at full lock. and spacers aren't worth it if they are 99 dollars a pair for the spidertraxx when i can get a whole new rim for 59. im thinking the Black rocks too, anyone got pics of them on there jeep.

Me personally, id go with Black Rock, they dont have the gayyy strip around the beads. I was gonna buy new, but decided on like stated above, some junk yard wheels rattle can'd are just as good. Though i plan on doing a DIY beadlocks so ill have more in that then the actual wheels.
