seems kind of pricey if they aren't new

My wheels were about 1800 with tires.. If I decide to go with these, I will go look at them, if they have plenty of tread, and the wheels are in good condition, I'll pull out a grand... People seem to negotiate when they see cash...

Personally, I like your rims you have now better. But if you want to change, or lift it then go for it. But like I said, it looks real sharp now.

I love my wheels too, but I need a different offset.. What are your guys thoughts of running the 1.5 inch billet spacers w/studs? I really don't plan on doing any real offroading as I have done that already and then spent hours cleaning the truck...

I am a huge fan of Black and in my opinion your wheels look way better than those

I know a lot of the 05+ grand cherokee guys are running that size spacer with no problems.... just find a set of hubcentric ones

Definitely, they are about 75 a pair, I just wanted to know if I should stay clear from them etc..

I honestly just want bigger tires, and if I do the spacers I can lift the truck and go to a bigger terra grappler.

If your not gonna offroad or drive it hard I see no problem in it.....

Only thing I see that I might have to do, is shave down the stock wheelstuds a bit since they will be longer than 1.5 inches...

What would you do with your current wheels and tires? I seen them on craigslist but to far for me to drive for that money and not be sure.

I was considering selling them, but with the responses on the spacers from those with 4x4's I am probably going to keep them...

I have my stock 17's sitting in the garage with brand new tires as my backup wheels..

They are nice wheels. I was thinking of getting MB Wheels Chaos 6 in 18" or 20" with either 305/60/18 or 305/55/20 as well as a 3/2 leveling kit.

I am doing the 3/2 leveling kit, the 1.5 inch wheel spacers and then 305/55/20 tires...

I'm not 100% positive, but from the research i've been doing, I dont think you would need spacers.

My wheels are +30 offset and if I go with 305/55 tires I want to bring the wheels to a 0 offset to prevent any inside wheel well rubbing...

For that price you can get a nice set of rockstars with 35's. If you like more sideway I would go with an 18 and a 35
