Default Black Wheels?

Anybody know where to get a good price on a set of traditional black rims? I only need direct OEM size since it's not lifted (yet) Thanks!

For black steel wheels you'll be hard pressed to find any cheaper then the Cragar Soft 8's. They run about $50 a piece.

Just go with 15x8. They will be fine with your 225-235/75/15's. Then when you upgrade to bigger tires later unless you go to a 15" wide tire you can use them for those too.

you can just paint the wheels you have now black just sand them down and spray them.... personally i think black wheels are played out... just my opinion tho...

my gf did that with her jeep and it doesnt look too bad if your short on money, but a good set of 15X8 in steel rims cant be beat in quality or looks. (personal opinion)
