Anyone need JK wheels?

I sourced one elsewhere for the right price, so mark me off the list.

Thanks for letting us know. I haven't acted on the set here cause I'm not sure what's going to happen with our job situation at the moment so I need to hold off for a bit. I'll post up when things look a little better.

These are some tough times for a lot of folks. I hope things look better for you soon.

For you Bill, not a problem. Just shoot me a message when you want to take a look at them.
The wrong offset and too-narrow fenders made for a very messy couple of weeks.
I'd really like to try fitting the Rubi wheels/tires, Chris.

I'll take'em.

Anyone want to buy two? Or two ProComp Xtreme AT 285/75-16 on ProComp 1059 wheels? They work great on a JK and I can get you employee pricing on the rest of the set from 4 Wheel Parts.

In fact, my rig is featured in this month's 4WheelParts magazine with a photo that Stumpy took.

I've got 5 rims and 5 tires waiting for a new home. I'll be back in town Friday night so anytime this weekend thru Wednesday is good for me. Tires and rims are separate (i.e. not mounted) so bring that big rig of yours.

Well that was disappointing.
Chris still has 5 Rubi tires & wheels for sale, three are mounted.

They don't come close to fitting the Little Guy hubs. And I'm not swapping out the axles or hubs...

Bill, you can fit a set of 2" adapters with will push the rims out enough so that the spindle doesn't interfere with the wheels. I have a set in stock if you need them. Check that you won't get interference with the fender first.

Sorry Bill, I thought you knew that you had to use wheel spacers for these to fit.

Martyn, is 2" the smallest spacer that will make them clear without modifying the wheel?

Yes those are the thinnest. Part of the issue is the spindle/castle nut assembly, and the 1.75" studs that are pressed into the hubs. We add to the problem by fitting bearing buddies to all of our trailers.

Good to know. I didn't know if 1.5" spacers could be used or not and just haven't gotten out there to get the tape measure out and see.
