I thought they would fit KJ, but realized they are 15.
Not sure, I never seen them before on anything else. I have seen silver ones, but not black.

There is also these: which I really like:

Description: 4 new 17 x 7.5" Black Jeep wheels with a machined lip
17 x 7.5" / 50mm offset replica.

But I am not sure if these will fit KJ perfect or will cause rub on the inside tire sidewall, since these have ++ ofset.

I think those are WJ wheels, aren't they? they run a 5x5 inch lug pattern or something that isn't the 5x4.5" pattern on our KJs

Well, that's not good news, is it. :(
I am search for black rims with silver lip. If anyone knows completely compatible that also works with TPM, please let me know.
Thanks.

Yep both of those rims are stock Jeep rims painted black.If you want black rims with the silver bead look at Motto Metal rims or American Racing rims,your going to pay for them but quality isn't cheap.Procrap has some to but I would avoid them like the black plague since they are made in China.

a lot of ARE's wheels are made in China, too...course, that's all their cheap junk like the chrome wheels kids like to put on their Civics. their good stuff is still American made.

Do we have a lot of steel mines here? afaik good steel comes from India.. no wonder all the sewer caps and manhole covers say "MADE IN INDIA" here in NY. But you don't see many wheels made in India. So those wheels that are made in the U.S. still gets the steel imported most of the time.

As for those kids' wheels, I couldn't agree more. I just drive through everything with my stock rims, they are thick and they can take a beating when I drive thrm through potholes, sidewalk curbs, etc.. With those other wheels, I would be afraid that they are gonna give or simply crack!

Here is a website I found on Powerblock TV , Xtreme4x4 on spike tv anyway they have some nice beadlock and other type wheels . But as any of those TV show go they have deep pockets and get stuff for free just to mention their products. Check out:

Hope this helps out somebody looking for wheels for their rides. Best of Luck. 8)
