Ok nevermind, I don't want em anymore! Coulda sworn I saw those on an XJ today... I want something that looks like my stock wheels that has 4" backspacing and 8" wide so I can have highway tires when I'm not wheeling that don't look like midgets, any suggestions?

I just found out the manufacturer. They are made by AEV, and I still can't afford them!

Something similar. Love the look of my stock wheels but they won't accommodate large enough tires to match my lift. I have mud tires on my new 15" wheels but I want to put All Terrains on my old rims or replacements that look similar for everyday driving.

what stock wheels do you have the steelies or the spokes. i run a 33x12.5 on a 8 inch wide rim you can get a 10.5 on a 7 inch no problem but you may have some rubbing if the backspacing is to high

yeah they are 7 inches wide but i think the back spacing is like 4.5 or 5.0 anything larger then a 31 would rub on the control arms for sure. sorry man i am going to bed now hope some one has some suggestions.

AEV is right around the corner from where i go to school so naturally I see a lot of jeeps with these wheels running around. There pretty cool but i still like steelies better. They mostly do the TJ hemi convesions and brutes

what would you expect to pay for these rimes
4) American Racing Wheels with 5 on 4.5" bolt pattern
The wheels are in ok condition,
they could use a good washing. The tires are completely bald
