Default cheap steal rims!

Okay. So Ive decided to go with the 3 inch Teraflex lift on my 2door 07 Rubi. Now I am just looking for someplace to find some inexpensive steal rims to go on some Nitto Mud Grapplers. Any idea guys?

Default Cheapest rim...

Here is the absolute cheapest Cragar steel 15" rim from jegs.com, they have free shipping, so you can them for $39.99/ea shipped to your door. They don't have them in 16" though, or I would buy them. They do have the "soft 8's" for $55.99 in 16x8

Summit has them for 38.95, in fact you can choose from the Soft 8 or V-5's in Black or Silver and free shipping for less then $40/ea. They did have a $12 handling charge though when I placed my order for 5 last night.

buyer beware! im on my 3rd set of soft 8s. they bend really easy and will never balance out again. but im with RedneckJeep - cant beat 60 bucks each, thats why im on my 3rd set.
Isn't that supposed to be one of the benifets of Steelies over aluminium, that they are easily bent back? If your bending that many you might want to try another rim size or something.

Default Steel wheels

I THOUGHT THE POINT IN GETTIN STEEL WHEELS INSTEAD OF aluminum was that steel was not as easily bent when bumping into those boulders ya'll got on them big hills ovr there . Now in the swamp weuns like aluminum wheels cuz they will get to spinning quicker cuz they weigh less. u know cuz u got to spin them wheels to get the mud outa them big cracks in the tires.
