Post subject:  Which Wheels?

Im about to buy some wheels for the KJ but I dont know which ones I should get, I like the Soft 8s but thats just about what everyone is running and I kind of want something different but I dont know how the V-5s will look on the KJ

What do you think?

Cragar Soft 8-like everyone else :roll:

Be different.

You should post a pic and see if someone can photoshop both wheels onto your KJ.

If being different is your focus and these are the only two selections, go with the V-5.

if you want the V5's look you could just paint the stock 16" steel wheels black. They look awfully close.
Why not drop some real money and get the AEV Bridgers? :shock: :lol:

Of the 2 listed I would go Soft 8's though.

I am honestly not a fan of either one. But that is just my HO. I am not sure what the big...draw to the Soft 8's is.

I dont think they are bad looking but its the price that really got me, its hard to beat $50 a wheel

My wheels,the same as soft 8's(unique steel series 297) were only $50 each(for 16x7) at discount tires.

Nothing at all against the soft 8s but I would go different just because you can, but Soft 8s are like belly buttons (almost) everyone has them :lol: :lol:

Sorry, but I can't make a decision for you. I say go with the photoshop idea, and decide which YOU like best.

I like em. I might hafta get a set too.

Is Summit the best place to get these or Discount Tire?

Also what is the best center cap to get or do u go commando?

Post subject: 

I dont know how much discount tire is but Summit is the cheapest Ive found and I would think that discount tire might be about the same price you just wouldnt have to wait for them to come.

and for the center cap I was thinking about getting these (b/c Im cheap and these are $10 less than the cragar ones):

Cool, I saw a TJ with the V5s on the other day, they are really cool I think. I'd consider them on the next jeep I get. Looking forward to the photojob.
