Anyone running AEV Salta XR wheels for JL?

[cactusflier]

Do they stick out past the side of the fenders? Can you post a side picture? I am thinking about these wheels and 35's on my stock JL.

Sorry for the delay, didn't see this til tonight. The tires stick out about an inch. Tires are the stock 285/70 KO2's. I would think 35's would stick out another half inch. Hope this helps.

Just came across this thread as I was researching the Salta XRs for my Sahara JL build.

Still not following this backspacing/offset concept. These were recommended to me by a shop that does mods but not sure why. He referenced the offset so I'm assuming the +25 was appealing to him for some reason.

I don't want my wheels to stick out too much, just not my style.

Any input as I'm also looking at the Fuel Anzas which have less offset, I believe either +1 or -6. And they come in 8.5" or 9". What's best decision if you don't want wheels sticking out?

the more positive offset the less poke. Stock is around +44 so the + 25 would be the best. There are pics in this thread showing the +25 offset.

That should look great. Still running the stock 285/70 17 KO2 and suspension but I did upgrade the shocks to Fox.

Not major but noticeable on pavement, seem to be a smoother, softer ride. Off road I don't think at the time I've had enough experience to say one way or the other.
