I run the M/T classic II's as well, no problems here. I have had them almost a year now, but have not had them out in the salt. I wheel mine a lot and the beads show it. If you run in rocky terrain you may want to consider the classic locks with more bead protection. The up side to them is that the 15"x8" fit the JK with out any clearance issues. Good luck with your search.

I have had two sets and loved them. Never would run them in the snow though, otherwise they would get destroyed. When I bought my old truck, I wanted them for it as well. I knew it was going to be my daily driver and see a lot of salt. So, I bought the pro comp chrome version. They held up great to the salt and never needed polishing.

I run the 305/65/17 and the MTs. They stick out about an inch, but they are 33s.
I do love the MTs though.
If I'm not mistaken, the 17 X 9 only come in the 4.5" backspacing for the JK wheel (5 X 5).

Correct the 17x9 only come in the 4.5 backspacing. I am running those wheels with BFG KM2 35x12.50x17's.
