For what it's worth though, i did like those wheels at the time. Wheels like all things have styles that come and go. Don;t care too much about the new wheels as I'll not be getting a new Wrangler for a long time yet.

Congrats on the new Rubicon, that is indeed exciting and worthy of a pat on the back, but I agree with the others, the new wheels look like dog poo. As long as you are happy though that's all that matters. Enjoy your new Jeep!

any wheels look good on a brand new Rubi you just picked up. Grats on the purchase.
I remember when I drove a Z and a year or two after I got mine they put new wheels on them from the factory and everyone with the old OEM wheels were hating on them b/c it made it obvious which ones were new and which ones were old.
Personally I would try to sell the 2013 rims to someone trying to make their older JK look newer and use that money to buy wider wheels with correct backspacing for 37's. The market is flooded with 17inch moabs, I am pretty sure these 2013 wheels will fetech a premium for at least a year or so over the older stockers.

I find those wheels kind of ugly.. Any when i think of Mila Kunis I think of inserting parts of my anatomy into her anatomy, when I look at wheels I don't think that at all! Not sure where the comparison came from

I see you hail from Concord, did you order the Rubi from Crown?
