Not bad. I just got them yesterday so I dont really know. My buddy has the same size tires and lift and ratio and its working for him. So i think it should be good. I love these rims, as well as your rims. I looked around for these forever

Your jeep looks good man, and those rims make it look even better, i had to search forever to find a set of the factory charcoal ones and i had to refinish them, but anyway how do you like that lift? My cherokee is a daily driver and im thinking about a lift but i dont want something thats going to be to extreme sense it'll be seeing more road then anything (sadly)

Thanks! I looked for these rims forever! I really like my lift. Its my DD and i have yet to take it off road. Its not extreme at all. Especially with the tire set up. I looked at your rims. I like your set up too. Would look nice with a 3 inch lift and some 31 inch tires. The gas mileage goes down a little, but with any lift it will.
