I am looking for a set of these rims, can't seem to find these with the center slanted. Like these. Does any one know the rims and size?

 

these?

 

They came on TJ Rubicons and are called Moabs. They are 16" and unless you don't plan on running anything wider than a 10" tire they work fine. Backspacing like on pretty much all stock wheels limits you to narrow tires.

 

I have Moabs on my XJ. I like them.

 

JK's have 17" Moabs that have a little less dish to them and require adapters because the XJ bolt pattern is 5x4x5 while the JK is 5x5.

 

Yup like the others said problem with them is improper BS on wheel and only able to run a narrow tire a 10:50 width is pushing them.


As cheap as the correct wheels are better to buy new or used and not something you have to run spacers/adapters with (they cast as much as a good wheel each). Personally I like 15's on an XJ and the huge number of tires available in a lot of sizes at good prices.


I run steel wheels a 15x8" with 3.75" of BS with 33's and 35's both 12:50's

 

Quadratec (and probably other stores) sells a Moab clone that I believe can be had with backspacings that many find more desirable. It is made to the same specs as the OEM Moabs--even forged instead of cast.

 

They pop up on craigslist all the time alot of guys buy the new jk and swap the wheels asap. I scored the 17 inch moab's on 33x12.50 mud tires. Had them on a yj with spacer adapters. The backspacing sucks and they rub on turns even with spacers. I'm only running them until I replace them with the ideal 15x8 setup I scored them too cheap to pass up.

 

As a off roader i rather have steel rims,Factory rims are cast aluminum if you break one on the trail the rim is pretty much trash.With a steel rim it will bend and you can beat it back or they are cheap enough if you have to replace it you don't care.

 

I believe the Rubicon came with those rims in 16 with 5x4.5 bolt pattern

 

Moab wheels..

Factory Availability: TJ (Rubicon Models Only), JK
Size: TJ Rubicon- 16"x8" JK- 17"
Colors: Silver, Dark Slate Grey (Mountain Edition and COD Black Ops Edition JK)
Bolt Pattern: TJ Rubicon- 5x4.5 JK- 5x5

Notes: The TJ Rubicon Moab has a more inset face and the JK Moab is flatter.

 

FWIW, Moabs are forged, not cast like most other factory wheels.

 

Yeah you are right the moabs are forged,New from mopar they are 259 a rim but i can get the same size rim in a beadlock for 245 from raceline.
