Got my new Fuel Zephyr beadlocks today. I've been trying to figure out all day if I should powdercoat the rings black or leave them as is :headbang:
The Candy Red looks gorgeous as is, but touching it up with trail rash will be nearly impossible!

Did you buy your Jeep at Adams in Annapolis? I recognize the round MD sticker. I also have that crab on the back of mine. Jeep, that is. Back of my Jeep. And crab, not crabs.

Been waiting to add a few more things to my JL and today was that day. Installed my free trailer hitch/receiver, added a receiver cover (thought it was cool that the cover has a built in holder for a 4-pin connector. Also added a few decals (been jealous of the rubicon decals and pixeldecals got me all set up).:like::handsinair:

17x9 -38 offset.
My company has an account with MHT Wheels, so I ordered direct from them.
So, you went from a +44 mm offset to a -38 mm offset?

Did you notice any wobbling from side to side on uneven paved roads? I went from a +44 to a +19.05 while also adding a 1.25" (31.75 mm) adapter and it seems to wobble a bit from side to side on unevenly paved local streets. I'm not talking about a steering wobble, but just body tilt to the left followed by a tilt to the right -- more so than it did with the stock tires.

Looking at a JL Sahara, cant find one in Ocean blue in the New England area with selec-trac and cold weather. Was told to order one which would be a 2019. Price came to 45,275. They said their invoice is 42,865 and they are selling it to me for 41,985. And the HB is 1300... am I missing something?

Yep, missing a good price. Lots of dealerships doing 5% under invoice or more.

I did on my stock suspension with RC 2.5" lift and 37x13.50r17 Coopers a while back. At that time I remember thinking the Jeep actually tracked better with the -38 offset KMC's & 37s(Set to 27psi) than with the factory wheels/tires.

I have since done some major suspension overhauls, two different sets of wheels, and bigger tires, so any comparison to stock wouldn't be fair.

YW! :muscle::muscle::muscle: Doing it biggg alwayzzz!

Thanks! :blush:

Hi Taressa and welcome! This particular thread is about what we did to our Jeeps today.

You might want to post your question/comment under: "ORDERING AND PRICING DISCUSSIONS" in order to get appropriate feedback.

Haha...I did order it from Adam's. I actually think Adam's is pretty smart with this badging, it's usually the first thing I take off but I don't mind this one with the MD flag so much.
