I voted for the D's. Reminds me of that old rap song throw some D's on that ***** lol I saw the red and blue striped ones on the RC website i think, maybe rustys.... The soft 8's and the D's are about the same price for 15x8 or the 15x10 category

Because everybody and their mother runs the same rims. They had to put stripes on the wheels because people were trying to take the wrong Jeep home.

For what its worth, I have these on my Cherokee... I just wanted something different than the usual D-window or Soft-8 style... Still flat black, and I have black lugs on mine as well...

Just a different option... http://www.summitracing.com/parts/USW-304-5812

Here's a pic of them mounted...

Why don't you go and look on vendors sites and make a purchase?

Default what is your CF membership fee ?

Because vendors here are at least $200 more than tire rack and Walmart, vendors sites suggest i get a forum discount & a membership

Isn't that interesting .

On the BMW and Porsche forums, if you hint you have some pocket change in any thread section, dozens of vendors dual it out to win your biz.

Jeeps forums, still trying to flush out vendors. Hey guys I have around $2000 to spend this week.

Only guy i flushed out so far is you.

Weird, but this forum is sort of refreshing, I mean it is like walking on Jeep sales lot and nobody even knows your jumping on the hood waving cash. Never seen such low pressure sales, maybe the mods don't want solictation in these threads ?
I sure do not feel smothered with sales reps, just the opposite on every single TJ & XJ forum.

I see that JK forums can't wait to shake the loose change from owners pockets, and they sure do have a lot of loose change to shake down.

Just visit the vendor site and shut up.
I have a feeling that is typical response here, no ?
I think the other reply was "the world does not stop for you because you have some cash"

Hey forums sponsors, if you know how to wheel & deal . I'm buying a set of 33x12.5 and D windows 3.75bs and 4.5" lift full springs for XJ.

for my TJ i read here that one has to spend more than $1k on proper LA lift. Some said $2k.

Really ?

Default Those rims look familar.

Those black rock rims remind me of my OEM steelies for sale but with plasti dip. I saw a set of my 15x7 with 33x12.5 on YT vid, i didn't know 12.50 fit, if he had spacers they sure didn't stick out like 3.75bs

Seeing how spacers run $200 it is no brainer to buy steelies and then craigslist the OEM set with tires

what is that backspacing you have ?
Did you shop around & research backspacing & lifts & tires & pricing or just goto the vendor site and buy ASAP?

I'm buying a set of Duratrac 33s with gloss D windows 15x8 3.75 BS, some vendors have free shipping and others want $40 for center caps

Quad has 15x8 3.75BS
set of 5 gloss rims D windows for $250 shipped no caps
http://www.quadratec.com/cart/cart.p...5+07&x=76&y=17

That is tough to beat.
