No problems right? Also I put in the comment section if I could get black lugs instead. Is that possible? Or is there a way to upgrade to locking lugs?
Did you order online? If so give them a call. They might even be able to save you a couple of bucks.
I have 15s with no fitment issues.

The 16x8.5 MB72 also works on the JK We do offer 1/2" black lug nuts and will include them with your order if you specified this when placing your order. The Gorilla lug kits we sell come with spline drive lug nuts which require a certain key/socket. If you want individual locking lug nuts we can special order them in for you. Give us a call at 1.888.459.4080 if you want to go this route.

This thread is dedicated to the 15x8 ET-19 (3.75" BS) MB72 fitting the JK so it works The 15" wheels linked below are also guaranteed to fit the JK without spacers or modifications to the brake calipers.

The backspacing on the MB72S is 3.75 and they clear the brakes just fine. Numerous examples of that in this very thread. There are other 15s that fit with no problem as well. Black Rock 909s, Black Rock Vipers, Level 8 Tracker, etc.

Is there any warranty with these wheels? The clearcoat seems to be peeling off at the front lip of the wheel on all 4 wheels. I love the look of them but the clearcoat is making them look horrible

Like dwayers noted, the MB72 does come standard with a 1 year finish warranty and also carries a lifetime warranty on the structure.
