I should have posted this here in the first place, thanks to the members that reminded me.

Tires are brand new, wheels have a huge problem with the clear coat coming off and corroding underneath.
I have an extended warranty but I assume it will not cover paint.
If anyone has a NTO the same size, or an exact fit, I would appreciate if you contact me here with details.

I am located in west central Ohio and on a budget - I can get a truck and pick them up, but not sure how far I can afford to drive.

Thanks in advance -

OFG

Off the top of my head the only ones I know of that might be for sale are ones from JeepinJarhead03. Was talking to him last evening and he has a complete set of Renegade wheels that he'll let go. Of course he's down in the Carolina's so would need to be shipped.
Have you checked the Columbus, Lima, Cincinnati area Craigslist? Seems to be there are always some coming up on there every now and again.

@tommudd - thanks for the reply.
I am about 100 miles from Cincy, Indy, Columbus and Ft Wayne. I check all their clist now and then - I see a few Liberty steelies now and then, GOBS of good deals on Wranglers but I don't want to mess with the adapting hassle.
I need to do my homework and find what other wheels will bolt on - I prefer stock, but I may have to go with aftermarket.

Cleaning up what I have would have been my first choice 20 years ago.
Had some family health issues the last couple years, and I thought I would check on my options before I started grinding. I have already had to have the bead area cleaned on 2 of the wheels due to corrosion bead leaks, and I want to check my options before I commit to that much time VS getting a new set of wheels.

I've got a set of 4 renegade wheels in good shape. Scratches here and there but nothing major. The 5 th however needs refinished. Lmk.

Columbus is doable. Can you send some closeups?

Thanks -
