Yeah, for $360 you can get five black steelies shipped to your door, they look good and if you scrape them who cares, can of black spray paint and thats it.

i'd have to agree. too much for something thats going to go off road.

my jeep came with the mickey thompson classis ii rims and i'm trying to get some cheapie steels so i can do diy beadlocks for when i really wheel.

how about weight diff. from steel to aluminum?

I bought 5 Crager soft 8's 15x8's, center caps an lugs shipped to my door from summit racing for $285.00

[jcsanders79]

I don't know what stock steel rims weigh but I do know that shipping weight on five steel procomp 15x8 wheels is 97.3 lbs, and I did not see any performance from going to stellies (I had xj alloys prior to the switch)

you will get a little more rolling resistance from a steel wheel vs an alumnum one but the differance is pretty small in comparison to what tire you put on.  when i had 31 i was concerned about the little differance but once you go to a 33 or higher it really won't matter anymore.
