So a few years back I bought a set of (5) KMC XD 127 Bully wheels in Matte Gray for my 16’ Granite Crystal JKUR. At the time the Jeep had mostly silver accents including the Rubicon logo so everything looked very buttoned up. Fast forward and I had the dealer switch those same wheels to my new 18’ Crystal Granite JLUR. As you probably know there’s a lot more red exterior and interior so I’m thinking of selling off my old wheels and 35” tires and buying new Fuel Hardline D261 wheels with 37” tires. So my question is in your opinion which wheel looks better on the new set up (not considering the tire size)

I voted to stick with your current wheels because they look great and the whole jeep is the focal point. The red accents on those other wheels looks brighter and is used a bit to heavy, which might throw the aesthetic balance off. If it were me, i'd get some of those little red willys jeep decals like the stock rubi wheels have and put them on your current wheels.

I have to agree with him. The current wheels make the entire Jeep look good. I think the red Fuel ones will make people look at your wheels more than the whole Jeep overall. (obviously this is personal opinion, either would look good, I just think the current ones look better)

I’m looking at rims now for my granite crystal Rubi as we speak, was also thinking of the fuel with the red for same reason you stayed, after seeing the rims you have on now,, there’s no doubt I’m going with the matte gray, don’t change a thing

Good choice. The red in those fuel wheels is way too bright compared to the Rubicon accents. It would go better on a firecracker red jeep.
