I agree. Deffinetly sets you appart. I like it. But aren't they a little pricey?

Money...come on that is no option when it comes to my jeep...just kidding I actually got them from a friend that owns a body shop. He had a totaled 05 and a totaled 06 Rubicon that had been there for a while so I got a complete set of 5 rims and tires for $200. Not a bad deal, so I had to scoop them up before someone else did.

That is a sweet price... and they look great! Good job.
(Cheers)

P.S. I believe that Rubicon wheels have 5" of backspace. What was the bs on your previous wheels? The 16x7's on my KJ have 6".

Are you sure about that? All of the liberty rims have 5.5" I thought.

I believe that it is 5" of backspacing, but i'm not 100% positive. All I know right now is that there is absolutely no rubbing compared to my stock rims that used to be on there, which caused a small rub at full turn.

Thanks everyone for the nice coments on the looks...I love it =D>

New 07-up JKs are 5 on 5 inch bolt pattern
Older Rubicons were the same as the KJs
