I am wanting a set of AEV Borah wheels for my JLU. Anyone have an AEV hookup? Thanks!

There is a JK version out already. People have been running them on JLs. They just stick out, which may be something the OP is OK with or desires.

I have the jk version borahs that are +4mm offset and I love them. They really don’t stick out that much pass the fenders. The wheel itself is almost flush with the fenders, then the tire is bulged out passed the fenders almost to the end of first tread block. I think they look outstanding and even better in person then they do in pictures. For my own build, I wouldn’t want anymore positive offset that will be offered with the JL version, going from a +4mm to a +25mm the face of the wheel will be a little flatter than the one I have.

Talked to AEV this week. The +25 offset Borah wheels will not be in stock until after the first of the year.

Well, it’s after the first.

Any news on colors available? I hope the spent brass makes a return.

I test fit mine today. These used to be on my jk and I wanted to check it out. Still undecided on the lift.

Got a few PM’s asking for pics so I thought would post these older pics of the JK version mounted on the JL.
Seems less visually than a 1 7/8ths spacer. I Love those wheels, but with RK lift I may need another small spacer. What is the back spacing on those?

If I remember correctly they have 4.59” back spacing
