Looking into new wheels and tires for my KK. I'm really into using other Jeep wheels (I ran ZJ canyons on my XJ.)

I know I'd need wheel adapters to run WK or JK wheels.

Just looking to see your non-KK Jeep wheels mounted up.

Thanks!

04-06 Rubicon wheels work great
not a fan of using spacers etc just to run JK wheels
plus unless lifted then you could run into rubbing issues

The wheels Tom mentioned look great and are extremely popular. You might be able to find a set on CL, but if you can find them people are usually asking a good bit for them.

The Moabs are jut so plain looking.
I sold my Moabs off my LJ to a KJ guy and went with KJ steelies and got 3" narrower track as a bonus. If I didn't like the KK rally wheels so much , I would have looked into the KJ alloys with the three ribbed spokes or done the KJ steelies again.

First time I ever heard that Moabs were plain looking and then run steelies :ROTFL:

They have 5 inch backspacing....I think that's factory tj. Looked up the link and wonder if they are forged or what not compared to the factory.

People down here want outrageous prices for factory tj moabs.

Most Havn't due to the fact that they aren't nearly as strong and are more expensive then just finding the real deal on CL

There is also another moab look alike by Tuff, I think they are called T20.They are cheaper then quadratech and come in different sizes. Once again though not as strong as moabs but a nice alternative I think.

I haven't been able to find those cheaper than the quadratech. I need a pair for my offroad trailer. I'm not paying 800 for a set of tj rims.

You don't need adapters to run TJ wheels, but you do to run JK wheels.

Very cheap imitations, they are cast not forged so not nearly as strong
you're just paying the price for the looks
