Yeah, actually there's a guy selling 5 black rims (soft 8's) for cheap. I emailed him Friday to see if they are sold or not. I hope he still has them.

Sorry I didn't answer you before, I missed your post.

In other news, I bought a shovel and mounted it on the roof rack. No picture because right after I was done, it started pouring alot. I might take one later today.

Here's some pictures of the shovel mounted on the roof basket. It's not the best shovel out there, actually the cheapest I could find (9,99$), but it's just to have one in case, I (or someone) would get stuck.







Tomorrow is the big day (lift installation) I can't wait!!! Wish me luck!

I found a set of 5 Black Rock Type 8 Rims (15x8, 3.75 Backspacing) for sale last Friday. I emailed the guy on Friday to check if he still had them. He replied to me this morning saying he still had them and that if I wanted them, to call him. I called him tonight and I'm picking them up this Thursday!!!





They are not new (1 1/2 years old), but the guy said that they still look good, only need some touch-up. Quite frankly, I just want them for the backspacing, so it will stop rubbing on the LCA's. Anyways, I'll post pics as soon as I get them.

Wow your jeep is going to look sickkk with those wheels. I'm guessing the garage needed more to work on your jeep because you would for sure have picture up by now.

As for the wheels, I can't wait to have them on. Always wanted black wheels.
