Mopar 77072494AB slotted off-road wheel question

[Pcljl]

Thanks for the response.

My camera sticks though and is working. I'm actually asking about the camera cover. With the new wheel, it doesn't seem to go on far enough to actually latch in.

Here is the just the camera:

Here is the camera cover. It doesn't sit flush any more and can't be locked.

Mine does. I took off the lock surround, and use a Bolt keyed Spare tire lock (Keys to the ignition key, just like their hood lock).

Is it hitting the wheel lock? Would not sweat the missing cover. Looks great without it. One of the best factory Jeep wheels.

it wasn't blocked by the lock, although I can see how it looks (I thought that at first).

With the slotted wheels, there is about 8mm less of the camera "post" exposed. The camera cover has a lip, so I ground it down and now it locks in place.

I need (?) to use the camera cover because it holds in place a custom 35-inch tire cover around the camera.

I think these wheels look great and am really happy.

It looks like it in the pictures but can you confirm the factory lugs work with these wheels. Assume so, but want to be sure.

Yes, I'm using the factory lug and lock nuts.

Went for it. $2700 for the change out to 285 KO2’s, wheels + install.

You still running these wheels? Also did you need spacers on these rims to run on that lift?

 

[TxJeepers]

No spacers needed. These have plenty of backspacing. I run Nitto 37s on mine.

I have them with 37s also and when wheeled to full articulation with MC 2.5” lift I got a very slight rub on the sway bar end link bolt. Just a tiny bit. Normal driving or even medium wheeling and it would not be an issue.

Hi all,

My Hydro Blue Pearl with a set of 35 12.50's Trxus:

With these rims you will need to add to the rest bumpers so the tire sits correctly, also if you carefully going the back of the camera shield you can get it to go one, I broke mine turning the screw the wrong way.

Regards,
Jim

I know this is an old post but I checked with Mopar and they are still available. Am wondering if anyone has 265/70/ 17’s on these and if they fit under the fender well? Great looking wheel.

Hi,

Not sure model you have but would guess a 285 70 r17 would fit a sport as fit a 2013 JK sport.

A Rubicon will clear 35 12.50's no issues

Nice looking Jeep and wheels. Do you have any direct side shots of the Jeep? Thanks!
