I liked the look with the Bullitt rims better, but that's just me. Those 18's need much larger tires! Good research and modding to get this to work how you wanted. |

that Cobra 18 was a gift, and had a Mustang-sized tired on it. I just wanted to verify the fit. I too prefer the Bullits, although it could be due to the color. |

Did you check American Racing Wheels? Their torque thrust line is very similar to the mustang wheels. I'd be surprised if they didn't make a 16x8. I wouldn't know the backspacing/offset though. |

For 18 inch rims you would need 255/55R18 tyres to keep them the same diameter as stock (29 inch)...And you wouldn't get far taking your KJ rock crawling with such low profile tyres, especially on alloy rims! One good knock against a rock with such a tyre could easily crack an alloy rim, and badly dent a steel rim so bad that it becomes unrepairable. If your not planning on going off road, ever, then fine, but it kind of defeats the object of having a 4WD Jeep, if you turn it into a vehicle that can't go off road! |

There are plenty of 2wds ot there... |
