So I at first liked the look of the JT with wheels tucked but that has wore off fast. I'm wanting to keep my current stock wheels because I love the wheels. Just want to add a little bit beefier look to the jeep. Was looking at my old JKU and now I'm craving that look again. Post your lift, spacer size, wheel size and tire size as well if you got it. Thanks.

Just for memory purpose, this photo was the one that got me. Thanks!

I'm not interested in the wheels I'm just interested in knowing what the backspacing is. But they look like the Willys wheeler wheels so if they are then they are exactly the same as my stock ones on the JT

Anyone got some 35's on stock wheels with 1.75" wheel spacers. I like the look of @SgtMajTomahawk rig with the 1.5" ones. I think I want a little more width though. I found some hub centric spacers at CJ Pony for $59 a pair. Anyone got any experience with them

Those are from Rugged Ridge. While not known necessarily for making wheel spacers, they are at least a somewhat reputable brand. You can pretty much bet that they are designed in the USA, but made in China, like most of their parts/accessories. Spidertrax and Synergy are probably the most recognized and trusted names for wheel spacers. There are others which are also high quality, but some which are not. You don't want to risk safety with a low-quality wheel spacer.

I ran some rugged Ridge brand stuff on my JKU and had zero issues out of them. Also ran Rough Country 1.5" Wheel spacers on the JKU without any issues. I would think Rugged Ridge Wheel Spacers would be equal in quality if not better than Rough Country.

Plus I got some credit with CJ Pony in my account from all the Mustang Parts I ordered from them so I would be in it for a lot less than $120
