Anyone keeping stock? Rubi wheels

[Renegade Wrangler]

I like how they look and the daily drive is great, don't plan on changing, maybe go to 35s in a year

I keeping the stockers on my rubi. When I need new tires I will put some 35's on it, but until then, 33's with the 2" Mopar lift it is quite capable and fun. I also tow.

Stock rims, 37's, 1.75po spacer ... Perfect for me, I like the stock look.

I was wondering the same. I plan on keeping the tires and wheels until I need new tires. It is not until then that I might do a 2 inch lift, 35's and aftermarket bumper. I guess my question is, if I don't see any other wheels that I like, will the stock Rubicon wheels work with 35's?

I like the look of the stock Rubivon wheels. My only complaint is having an off road vehicle, with higher fenders to handle larger tires, and then delivering with a 7.5" rim that will not legally fit a larger tire. Tire Rack refused to put 35" tires as they have a 8" minimum width requirement. I have not been able to find any larger tires that will fit the stock rims.

Running stock rubi rims for now.. on 37s. No issues at all-been great. Hit the Rubicon trail in July and been to the Oceana Dunes in Pismo Beach Ca. multiple times.

anyone think the stick wheels are fine and not planning to upgrade size or rims?

I plan on going to 35’s and custom rims as soon as I can. I like what’s on it stock but I’ve seen some really cool rim/tire setups.... and I want to start “making it mine”

I am function over form. The 33's are great for the off roading that I do (I don't want to hurt my daily driver).

I really couldn't care less about the look of the rims. I don't see them when I'm behind the wheel!

I am keeping my stock rims and tires for daily driving and I went with Methods and Creepy crawlers (37's) for the hard trails.. It freaks me out to see all the JL's dragging their belly's across the rocks on the Rubicon, sounds terrible, at least 37's and a Mopar lift will help minimize it.

I like them so much I purposely got them for my Sport.

Wheel spacers? What size tires you running?

I will stay stock until these tires wear out, not changing rims they look great. Can't see wasting the money on tires and rims and calling it a mod.

Wheel spacers? What size tires you running?

All listed in sig.

I like both styles of Rubicon wheels. Glad people take them off and upgraded.

Those stock size rubi tires also?

I really like the stock wheel, and I'm fine with no wheel spacers as it articulates perfect with the Mopar lift.
My problem is deciding between the 2 sets of tires I have:
315/70/17. Load Range E Cooper STT Pro - excellent off-road. harsh on road, and noisey
315/70/17. Load Range C BFG KO2 - Excellent on-road behaviors, quiet - compromised off-road (rock crawling and mud)

Yes, I also installed Rubicon springs and shocks before taking this photo.

I think a lot more people would keep the Rubi rims if they were 8 to 8.5" instead of the 7.5" wide. When I finally order mine I'm hoping that the tire place will mount the tire on the rims. I've heard of some places will and others wont. Kind of a crap shoot. I wanted to wait on rims cause the ones I want are $$$.
