I don't know why people are so against 20"+ rims on a jeep, but I kind of like them. I think it looks cool on jeep with a 6" lift that is running 37" or 40" tires. I wouldn't put 20"+ rims on my jeep because of the fact that its just not practical. Mine isn't a show piece its something I want to bang up and get dirty. I like to find a happy compromise between looks and function. That just my opinion, thought I'd share.

but if you're primarily doing street or some sand and mud, i see no problems with 20's. like i said in my original post, the JK has evolved into full-size-ish truck territory. F-150's, Tundra's, Silverado's, Ram's etc etc - 20's are now factory options even for their 4x4 models. Considering the new size of wranglers and their generously sized wheelwells, I think 20's can be used 'properly' on jeeps.
theoretically, a 35" tire uses more rubber on a 15" rim than a 20" rim so i always thought larger rim'd tires would be cheaper... but I guess manufacturing and lack of demand warrants higher prices...

ok...since you guys are talking about me behind my back...lol..
Ill put up some pics of my little Jeep.
Yes, youre right, they are 36s (325/60/R20).
I like the extra 1/2" of rubber on either side.
and yes, 20" tires are expensive
but I knew what I wanted, and loooove Discount Tire's Road hazard warranty!
I know accessories change a lot in these pics..hood jack mount, snorkel, quadlight front bumper, etc., but I change stuff every week...new pics will show the BUSHWACKER FLARES!!!
