Looking for some stock wheels for my JK.  I want to get rid of the 18"s I have now and go down to 16s.  If anyone knows of a good place to get some used rims please let me know.
5on5 16x8 at least is what I am looking for. The backspacing is 4.5.

I have have been unable to find these mythical $50 16" rims people tell me about.

Would love a set of the black stock rubi wheels!

    Well where you been looking??
     
    I would post a link but i dont know what size width you need or the lug pattern since i dont have a jeep.  But i just did a Quick search at summingracing.com for black rims 16inch 5 lug and saw plenty of them that cost around $52-70 a rim

        WOOT!  Found some and snatched them up.  Stock 2011 Rubi wheels and tires.  They are not quite as big as I wanted to go but they will work.  They are almost new, still have the injection mold thingies on EVERY tire.  The spare has never hit the ground.  All for $800.  Compared to the $2000 I was looking to dump at 4wheelparts I am ecstatic!  They are 17s but that works.

            Not to hijack the thread but Kayden, you gotta change that avatar. I can't tell you how many times I've tried to wipe that stupid fly away from my monitor. Either that or send me the file so I can use it on my other forums

              Arghh!  Just got them put on and they look too small compared to what I had on there.  They are 255/70/17 compared to the old 275/75/18 and are actually about 1" taller, just skinny.  The backspacing changed from 4.5 to 5.5 making them **** in even more.  But they will do for now.  They are BFG MT KMs.  Much better than what I had on there for wheeling.

                KM's are ALOT better than what you had. You should see a huge change out at Shiloh. I'm running the KM2's and have that old school KM as my spare.
