Post Pic's of your Jeep

How is your shovel mounted? Looks like an exhaust clamp?

Yep, along with two long bolts welded to the spare carrier.

It's funny because the day after that picture was taken, my Jeep looked just as clean as the first 3 pics. People assume I don't get it dirty because it never stays dirty long enough for people to notice haha.

And BTW ...those painted steelies make yer ride the bomb, nicest original idea for a wheel-set I've seen on a jeep.

Post up some pics! Where did you get your wheels at?

They are from Stockton. I have considered painting them a dark khaki but never got around to it..


As you know, these are extremely heavy yet extremely durable too. Coupled with a heavy tire like the Toyo, I needed a break upgrade. Have you experienced any issues with your stock brakes?

I haven't had any brake issues on mine. I think the JK has larger brakes though, and my 33x12.5x15 Duratracs are a pretty light tire. I don't think the combo weighs much more than the factory 17's/32" tire combo.

Do you know the weight on just the wheels? Mine aren't Stockton, and they weigh 24lbs each. They are Wheels Vintique brand and I bought them from Summit. They look pretty much identical to yours though.

They do look the same.. I honestly don't know the weight, but I remember picking them up and they were quite heavy. Putting my spare tire back on the other day was a real chore after modifying the swing away. I get tons of compliments on my wheels too. I was at Discount Tire the other day buying a new set of Toyos and the guy said, " I am assuming you want to get rid of those old wheels as well, right?". I almost burst out laughing :sombrero: At least he really thought they were old "vintage". haha!
