New Shoes On The KJ!

So i finally got my wheels mounted, i just took out the TPMS system and covered the dash light with electrical tape (thanks incubusMike). I think they look great, the streetlocks set the renegade flares off nice. I do have some slight rubbing on the Pinchweld but nothing a BFH cant take care of. :lol:

Here are you pictures!

Looks good, I may have to paint my Moabs yet, like the (almost) all black you have going on!

It looks good now, but imagine how good it'll look when you give me your old wheels :lol:

Nice lookin rig!

Yep those streetlocks look good,even being a fake beadlock the extra outer lip really helps keep that outer bead from bending when you smash it agaist a rock.I would have gotten another set for my 35" tires but at the time they where on national back order for the 15x8 one's :evil:

.

It would look much better if you lost those cheesy chrome center caps though in my opinion.

how are you getting rubbing on that pinch weld? it looks like you have plenty of room even at full lock??

I really don't know I thought the sam right when I saw them on. Its only full lock in reverse though, just something else to add to my to do list.

I honestly don't see how he wouldn't

take a look at the drivers side pic he posted above. plenty of room between tire and pinch weld. can't tell what else might be rubbing though

Nope its not rubbing but the wheels aren't turned at all, I have to get it perfect in reverse to have it rub otherwise it really doesn't. just been meaning to get the pinch weld out of the way for sometime now. :roll:

You have to remember he's got a lot less backspacing than you do with stock wheels, and therefore the tire swings a bigger arc while steering and hits more stuff.

That looks good! like a KJ knight rider. Did the wheels come with a watch so you can talk to your Jeep?

YEA MAN that looks pretty good dude.
I like the way it makes your RENNY stand out.....

Maybe you're not rubbing the pinch weld. Mine rubs the plastic molding behind my fog lights at full lock... it's completely free of the pinch weld. I couldn't tell until I had someone outside watching though.

My 2 cents.

I thought that might happen so I meted it down and pushed it back I know its not rubbing there. When I pound the pinchweld down ill melt it again and push it back some more.
