We sure are! I decided to play it safe and purchase a set of black Mopar bead-lock-capable wheels. Having the rings powder coated to match the black. Now I am almost thinking twice about that decision though... oh well! If anyone knows someone looking for a set of the new XR wheels send them my way!
I think I'm watching your EBay auction. I'm just curious what you end up getting out of the stock XR wheels. I really like the look now that I've seen them in person. I'm happy to keep them

Awesome - I see way too many Jeeps with a hard top and it never comes off! Love that Orange paint! Was my second choice! ?
It’s red, but it’s so red it comes across orange ?

I had the same issue with the last red one ?

Oh really? I probably sent you an offer then haha! I am curious too! I probably should have waited to see what they looked like in different colors but I’ve always been dead set on black rims especially after that mopar insiders leak awhile back. I couldn’t resist the urge to buy them... glad those wheels are turning out well for you though! They do look good on your rig!

Ok gotcha! I might have to pick some of those up as well! I like how they look! Also thinking about the Mopar screen protector.
Is there a problem running the infotainment without a protector? I keep seeing stuff about protectors

From what I hear they can get scratched up over time from fingers, dust, and debris. Probably not the biggest concern but for ten dollars a screen I’d much rather protect my $1800 upgrade than take my chances. I’m also just paranoid lol. ?

Haha that’s funny! eBay can be kinda quirky like that sometimes. I’ve gotten pretty used to it’s interface though after selling stuff there for the past year. I’m gonna keep hoping that someone really likes the looks of them and has the money to spend. Or maybe someone wants to trade me for steel bumper takeoffs. A long shot but a man can dream!

I bet you could get steel bumpers out of them pretty easily. They look nice and have a good offset for oversized tires. People are going to want them

Here’s to hoping! That’s one option I wanted but didn’t end up going with as I figured I could always add them later. Same with leather... but I kinda wish I had upgraded that. Will probably do katzkin in the future.

It tapers back, it will be very tight if it fits. I’ll try and grab some better measurements later. I just ran out while the guy was in the back doing “paperwork”
Hell, I'll buy ya a beer for that!
