So I'm looking at the following wheels and I can't decide what to get. All of them have 18mm offset except the xd131 which has a 25mm offset. I have a rubicon with longer axles so I don't need as much offset as other models.

Are you set on XD's? If not, look at Fuel Vectors in black...or, Method 305's. But, you're the one who has to look at 'em every day...

I haven’t been able to find any with an 18mm offset or larger

Just out of curiousity, why is 18mm or greater a requirement? Do you want them tucked in and not protruding? The Vectors have a -12mm which should give the wheel a bit of a "deep dish" look...but, it may stick out some as well...

Yes mostly. I have my 12.5" wide tires on stock wheels right now and the side walls are already sticking out past the fenders. The tread may have an inch at the most before it sticks out too. So -12mm pushes the tire out 2.25" more and I would prefer an inch only. The laws here state no tread past the fenders and I would prefer to comply.

An offset of 19.05mm is exactly one inch further out than the stock at 44.45mm. I found 18mm which is why I said 18mm or greater.

I do like Fuel wheels :like: but there is nothing close to the offset I was wanting.

might check-out tirerack.com as you can see most of these wheels, and many more brands, with a real JL photo now in their configurator.
