hahah, don't tempt me, you know I am looking for a reason to get new rims, one of them is better set of tires, other is to get black ones..

OK. I searched and found black rims for Jeep, but they turned out to be "REPLICA" rims.. So I cannot really trust them..

Description: 4 new 17 x 7.5" Black Jeep wheels with a machined lip
17 x 7.5" / 50mm offset replica.

i guess with 50, they would stick out and cause problems at turns, and a bit wide..

Does anyone have a link to anywhere who sells all of the factory wheels including the black ones, or other jeep wheels that could fit KJ?

Seems like they are all OEM Liberty wheels. By the time you pay shipping and insurance, you might as wheel order them from your dealer. The cost is just about the same....

You've got the ones I want, and hopefully will one day get. How much were they again? I like the Moab's too, but the charcoal color on those you've got look better to me. Ok, sorry Hyedipin, you can have your thread back now. ;)

I wished i was living in Us ,the rims that are $300 over there would cost double that over here in Uk. We get ripped off for everything 80% tax on fuel £400 for road tax on new 4x4's and now there trying to implement congestion charges on top of the road tax cost will be about £7 a day extra to get to work = less money to spend on my kj .

Jimmy Jeep....Yea, but you have a Queen and we only have a President. The Old Girl needs a lot of lipstick.:D

Hyedipin, I like the black rims in your first pic. They must make them in 16 or 17.

They had to be special ordered from the dealer @ $190.00 each + tax, but they only come in 17". All of the other OEM 16" rims they had (which I wanted) were more expensive. Can you believe that, 17" rims being cheaper than 16" rims? So I went with the 17" rims to save a few $$$.

Yeah, they look nice, but they're too big to put on really good offroad tires such as BFG A/T's....

I sent a message to seller to see if they sell them in 16 or 17 (the first one).
But would they be safe? I mean, they are replicas.

You know, in all reality, many of your aftermarket rims sold by the big tire/wheel chains stores, are made overseas in places like China. Even the OEM wheels on my Crossfire are made in Poland, of all places.

I would think they would be okay, unless they're selling new for some unreal low ball price.

And, I agree with you, they do look really sweet....
