What do you think of these
Permalink  

I am about to order up some wheels, and cant decide. I was going to get the cragar D-window or the soft 8, haven't decided.  Then I saw these and I think I might get 'em.  What do ya think?  should I take a risk on these or run the same wheels everyone else has?

What color is your Jeep?

Can't say for sure, without knowing the color of your Jeep, but I kinda like 'em. I think they might be a good change.

Really depends on the color of the Jeep as to if I'd like them in silver or black.

I'm not a fan of the d-window's at all, I prefer the soft 8's (we just got some for Rebecca's XJ).

They are now making the soft 8's in silver as well. You can get them here.

I think I'm going to get them in silver. If I end up not liking them I can always paint them or get them repowdercoated.

I think you will like them. They are different. Most often, different is good.

another vote for soft8

update on my 'what wheels?' poll:
lost job, no goodies for Jeep in forseeable future.
