An addition for your Murphy's Law list:
The first rock will hit a new windshield at exactly eye level on the driver's side. :evil:

I'll second that. The Mojave rims look tough, the others are a little too bling of a design for a Jeep in my opinion.

I'll third that. They look a lot better on a Jeep than the others.

eckk.... thos pics looked much better on my home computer last night.... hmmm, could be my monitor here . . . or I compressed them too much . . . :?

Yeah I was really leaning towards the Chambers up until last night. I think ithe styling is very macho . . . angular and tuff looking . . . but haven't seen one in person.

However, last night I decided to make the Mockups . . . and now I'm leaning back towards the Mojave. I just hope they aren't too black, I'm thinking a graphite color would be perfect . . . I suppose I could put the tires white lettering out and that might be nicer . . .

What do ya'll think . . . white lettering in . . . or out?

I looked at the Cragar Steelies too . . . but I understand that they weigh a LOT more and don't want to take any more of a hit on my performance than I already have and will with heavier tires.

So True . . . I've had a bad crack/line in mine for a while now . . . the Libbys windshield is like a freaking Rock Magnet.

I've got several other great Murphy's Laws but the BB only allows so many characters in the Quote . . .

Want something really nice, go get yourself a set of Rubi rims off the Jeep Rubicon!!!!! Offset is a hair wider and the rims 8 inches wide and nicest part, they look like a Jeep and don't have alot of bling!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

I have to agree, the MOAB rims (Jeep Rubicon) are the best looking for the Liberty.
