I think he means cool to be on a mall crawler because they will get destroyed if you use your jeep for offroading.

I just had never seen wheels like this before. I could never afford them that is for sure.

Ya i'd say for some harsh off roading, but if your doing that i'd hope you wouldn't get fancy wheels.lol but i was thinking more of a dd/trail rig, would look sweet on road and with some good m/t's would do perfectly fine off road.

20's with with 32's ya i understand. But im talking about 17's with a set of 35's would be fine off road and look good on road.

For further proving they'd be fine off road obviously.

So you are saying OUR OPINIONS are incorrect?

I guess I dont get it, Pay big bucks for rims to scratch them up and have them look like crap. Unless having nice rims with scratches is the new thing.

Maybe Ill go get some custom paint and these rims and ill be set for the trails.


Edit: And aren't they aluminum on top of it?

Edit Edit: I also want to say that I dont think they are ugly. lol Just not the wisest choice for a off road vehicle.
