JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

I can't get enough of these wheels, question though, these wheels (17x8 i believe) have enough backspacing for 33's, 35's, beyond????? without the need for spacers?

They are 17x8.5

-10 mm back spacing.

They are designed for up to a 35 in wheel without a spacer

I have got to ask...purely out of my own ignorance, what makes these worth $300 a piece when you can get pro-comps and others with great reviews for half that? I am by no means trying to bad mouth these wheels, they are by far my favorite out there, but was just wondering what I am missing! Help a noob out!!

1. They are hub centric
2. For non-beadlock rims, they hold the bead at low tire pressure very well
3. I paid $209 right off of AEV site
4. They look totally bad ass

My only complaint is for this money, the center cap should not be a sticker.

You can buy replacement center caps that are all metal in black or silver.
