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.

Ihave the classic II's and have had them for about a year and love them. If you done want to keep your wheels clean and put some polish on them once and a while then get some black steelies. Any chrome/aluminium polished wheel is going to need some attention. I love them and would get them again. Great wheel and look good! Hope this helps. I also use the mothers with the power ball.

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.

I've got the MT Classic II on a TJ - Big Mistake! They're for cars and require too much maintainance.

I had them on mine and they held up great on and off road. I also loved the way they looked on it.
