Jeeps lots of jeeps
Now Im trying to figure out if the 26lb figure for the mopar wheels is accurate.
I saw a post on here where a member stated that they weighed them on their bathroom scale. He said they weighed 34 pounds. I'm not sure if that was with either ring installed.

Those bolts probably weigh a bit as well.

Great looking wheels!

Get ready to start washing that jeep everyday. ;)
I have -12 wheels on my jeep as well...the amount of dirt kicked up is ridiculous....
Need to get sliders that deflect/block most of it. ;)

Your setup is coming along. I’m trying to decide what offset I need for my wheels. I like the distance your tires protrude from your wheel well. What offset are your wheels and how much do your wheels protrude? Thanks in advance.

Thanks! My wheels are a -12 offset or 4.5" of backspacing. They stick out about 2 3/4" from the fender.

Looks really good, been thinking about this wheel and tire package as well. Mind if I ask where you got them?

Thanks! Did you order all 5 at once or only get 4 the first order, just wondering why you had to wait for the 5th
I ordered 5, they didn't send the fifth. It was only 3 days later and I got it. They messed up in shipping.

What lug nuts did you have to get with those wheels? Would the stock nuts work?
No, the stock lugs are too large in diameter. I'm not sure the exact size as they sent them with the wheels.

You are a lifesaver! I have been looking for a -12 offset on a new Rubicon JL with 35” tires for a while. I want to order the matte gold DT-1 for my JLUR. Out of every wheel I have found, I think the DT-1 looks the best. I wanted a 0 offset, but -12 is not too bad. I want the matte gold as it really looks good with the Punk’n. The -12 is a little further out than I planned, but I think it will work. Now just have to wait for them to be in stock and my replacement 2019 to be delivered. My only big concern now is the weight. Those will be a beast off-road, but heavy on-road.

any updates on how the wheel weight impacts anything? what kind of mpg do you get with the 35” and DT-1 wheels? Any issues with the brakes wearing more or issues stopping?

I got an email from dirty life on the offical weight. They said the wheels with the dot lip is 44lbs. Having these wheels for a bit, i have not noticed any changes in stopping or acceleration. The gold color was also my color choice but i could not find them anywhere. I ended up plasti dipping them a bronze gold color.

Wow, that looks awesome in that color! If yours was only Punk’n I could see exactly what my setup would look like (other than your missing 2 doors lol)

44lbs is a little heavy, may just need to find a little lighter tire to offset.
