Besides maybe cheaper and more availability of tires sizes, what advantage of dropping down to 15" rims? |

Sweetness....time to break out the razor blade and do some trimming . I knew it was going to be sooner than later you got the set-up  .
Tire selection is the biggest positive going with 15" rims. |

I have to agree. PLUS I was tired (funny pun) of my MTRs; loud, heavy, harsh. These are made of a softer rubber compound, C Load, and MUCH quieter - I wouldn't mind running them on the street daily. Also steel rims will most likely not crack like I've seen aluminum do (swampthing). PLUS, I don't know what kind of Jeep (YJ, TJ) I'll be driving in the future, but if the axles have a 4.5 on 5 BP, I've got a set of good offroad tires to bring with em. |

come on Mitch more pictures needed! You are right about the MTRs being heavy etc. When I bought the Moabs and put them on mine and went for a ride could not beleive how much heavier the steering/ and even taking off / stopping felt, lots of difference. |

I'm probably picking up 300 or so pumpkins/flowers/ other supplies for our church's fall festival Sat night. I would like to black out the wife's libby, but will probably just stick with the alum factories since it won't be wheeled....and it's her's

If i'm not mistaken, they painted them with the tires on the wheel with spray paint and clearcoat. |
