2013 Rubicon wheels remind me of a hippie flower. They are the worst wheels possible and darn ugly. '12 and prior was much better IMO. I'd take those ugly things off in a minute and replace them.

Congrats to all the 2013 owners out there.

Sorry about the wheels, they are just awful. Awful.

Oh, and my 2012 moabs are for sale if anyone's interested

I see you hail from Concord, did you order the Rubi from Crown?
LOL... I hope you realize it was a euphemistic comparison about my reaction to the new wheels.

No, I ended up at Michael Stead on North Main. They matched the $1000 under invoice offer I had from my dealer in Nebraska where we have property too. Did I screw up?

Man, I see all the "hate" for the new Rubicon wheels. Then I see all the compliments on aftermarket wheels that people have dropped a butt-load of money, wheels that make my gag reflex kick in.

Everyone has their own taste!

Then we'd be putting down someone's vehicle more specifically VS what you get by default. It takes a surprisingly small bit of peer pressure to make some people question their choices, so I'm not surprised we're all a little nicer when commenting on a specific rig. But I hear you, there are some fugly aftermarket wheels that are very popular. At least the new Rubicon wheels don't have fake beadlocks.

I have one of the lst 2012's and spent good money on wheels. Had I waited a few more weeks to place my order, Id be loving these wheels and wouldnt change them. FInally Jeep adds a little style to the wheels. I approve.
