I'm looking to get new rims for my jeep because the rims i curretly have on there now are all rusty and pretty much slowly flakeing apart. Causeing me some small steady leaks. I was curious on any rims that you guys would reccomend, that would be cheap, and would last me a while, (and wont rust to quickly)

If you don't want your wheels to rust buy alloy.

My personal opinion buy alloy wheels i had steel wheels they extremely heavy bulky rust and everyone has them i sold mine for alloy wheels it drives so much better alot less resistance on the drive train and looks better

Alright so i'll see how much i'd have to allot for some alloy rims. Also Another question what's a pretty decent, but cheap aftermarket radio that i can install in my jeep(preferably with an audio jack)? The tuner in the stock one went out so i'm getting am but no fm channels. Kind of annoying, plus i don't have any tapes to play either.

Also another thing i just remembered, when i first start the jeep the wear your seat belt light comes on, then it goes away, bu i havn't even put it on yet. i've driven around without it to test it, now it's not like i'm going to fix it just to have it bing and beep when i don;t have it on, but i was just curious as to what would cause this and if it would need to be fixed?
