Question for all? JBA is now selling wheels for the KJ, are any of these really any good? I have my factory rims, and have wanted to find something other than the moabs for a while. I have not followed the replacement wheel market for damn near 2 decades. Any thoughts?

Maybe one of the mods can move this to the tire & wheel section.
There is a lot to consider regarding wheels. What width, size of of tire/rim, back spacing etc.
I run with SpiderTrax spacers & wish one day I could win the lottery and get some proper black rims.

Saw the wheels at JBA a little while back while dreaming of a lift. That site is sort of like getting the Sears catalog near Christmas way back when. Any reason they are all 16x8?? Surprised there are none in the 16x7 range although that size seems a bit rare in the aftermarket.

In aluminum type wheels 7 inch is real hard to come by
some 15 inch but of course they won't fit,

Dear Santa..Can you help me with $10k for JBA Jeep parts?:gr_grin:
I like some of the American Racing rims he has featured.
My jeep came calibrated with 17 inch rims, did not see any of those though.

I've got a set of 15" AR23s on my 98 Ranger. Nice wheel. Should have gotten the 16s, then I could have just rotated them between vehicles.

Interesting AR has a fancy flash website and you can customize your rims into a pic of a KJ !
http://my.americanracing.com/browse-wheels.cfm
I selected vehicle type, 17" and any of the "custom" rims you can build, to your flavor, in a drop down menu.
I may have missed it, but I don't see select your width or back spacing though.
