The wheels are made by V Rock. The model number is VR3-79730B. 17X9 Recon Matte Black. I got them at my local tire shop. I told him I wanted the KMC Rockstars but I was not sure about the star center cap. He had these in the box still and said they just came in today. If you type in the model number I only can find one place that sells them and they don't give you a price unless you open a account. They ran me $148.95 per wheel.

Hello, I'm Augie. I'm new around here. Just love the show and tell threads!
I've been looking at everyone's JK to see what I'll want to do next, too bad for my wallet, they all look great
Here's a picture of my Black Rockstars Wheels.
My wife picked these, and although I like them, I wanted to go with chrome or polished in case they get scratched while 4wheeling in the Arizona desert.
I figured it's more noticeable w/ black. (?)
What's everyone's take on that? Any issues with scratches on black wheels?

Uprading the JK
@ Cap'n (or any others) from a JK Newb,
I've got a 4 door Unlimited Sahara that I'm looking to get wheels and tires and a lift done on (finally wore the wife down although secretly I think she likes the idea but won't admit it). I've settled on the Rhinos as you did (great mix of function and look) and will probably go Yokohamas or Wrangler Duratrac 33s. I'm restricted to not spending too much on a lift so I'm thinking about the Teraflex 2.5 bb (not sure if I'll buy with new shocks are not-any thoughts or recommendations are welcome). I wanted any advice you (all) may have as far as need of backspacing, any conflicts with the Teraflex, etc. Thanks in advance.
