Looks good.  35's really change the look of the Jeep.  Makes it look huge.  I love the look of 35's on a cleanly built Jeep.

^ Thanks! Just wait - I'll loose some bling on those rims... they are bare aluminum. I have an old one for a spare and it's bling free (dull). I want aluminum rims for weight savings...

^^ It does seem huge... esp. when parked next to a stocker!

Hmm, I've got the same BS wheels.  I wish I could go back to stock flares.  They make the Jeep look really skinny. Not to mention taller.  Mine stick out around 3-4" which would get me a fix-it ticket.  I should probably try some TJ Sahara/Rubicon flares maybe...

BTW: my wheel are aluminum too...  everyone just jealous of the bling.

^ My buddy had a few steel rims in the garage... Too heavy for me.

They weigh a ton! His were 10" wide thou... I got lucky cause he gave me 2 of the rims on my Jeep (well spare and xtra). Found 4 new to match for ~$77 each shipped.

They will look like this soon enough...

question from the noob sector: Are the steel rims any stronger than the shinny ones?

a year ago i was going way to fast down a trail (actually a new housing development, was once a trail) and encountered a curb, everything was ok besides the point of impact on the rim, it flared up a little bit.

It depends.  There are three different types of aluminum wheels.  I think it was covered in this thread. http://www.4bangerjp.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1668&
