Hey guys its been a while since i've been on....helping parents move and having no internet causes me to resort to using Einstein Bros. bagel shop as my internet hot spot, now down to the point.
New Rims XD Series Hoss and they're made by wheel pros. 16x8 with an 18mm offset, matted with my old BFG ATs i did put them black wall out for these rims and i do need to clean them i know :lol: they wouldn't fit without some pinch weld flattening and some trimming but i do love the way it pushes my stance out...yummy. Did you guys notice your jeep following the grooved lines on the highway when putting on wider rims or is it just me? Here are some pics...what do you guys think? 8) I'll check back in monday at the latest hope you fellas are enjoying your summer!

The rims have nothing to do with the lines in the road, its the width of the tires. My 255's are awful. Looks like they need some grass!

Edit: Ohh, They look awesome!!!
