Hey all -
I'm lifting my 2008 JK with a 3" TeraFlex 8 FlexArm and now I need to think about rims and tires. I really like the Fuel one piece Anza D558 in matte anthracite with a black ring in either 18x9 or 20x9. I believe I have an 9" or 10" option with the 20". I need 4.5" of backspace for my lift. Thanks for the pics.

Sorry I didn't realize you are a vendor. I think I like the looks of the 18" over the 20" on a two door. Which do you sell the most? Also, on the 20" rims, are 9" or 10" preferred. I just don't want the rim and tires to stick out too much. I also like those 35" Toyos. Thanks for posting.
For 35s, I would recommend sticking with an 18x9. They come with a 5" backspace which would out a 12.50 wide tire right to the edge of the factory fender. We sell the 17s and 18s more than anything else.
RubiTrux - that information is GOLD!!! Seriously, I don't want the wheels and tires to stick out very far. What you explained is exactly what I had concerns about.
I guess I'm set. Predicated on my work schedule, I'm going to buy and install my lift and driveshafts in the next couple of months. Then the wheels and tires.
I'm trying to load pictures to my profile.. I just have to figure out how to shrink the files on an iPad
Here are my anthracite Anza's 17x9's on 35x12.5 tires. Love the wheels. They do look a little small on the bigger tires and I think 18's would have looked a little better, but I wanted more sidewall for when offroading and aired down.
17s and airing them down is a good point with the extra side wall, but I'm going with looks like you said. The anthracite is the color I want for my burgundy Jeep. They look good on your Jeep.. Thanks.
Well All -
I finally got the time to install my lift. I put a 4" TeraFlex 8 FlexArm with bump stops, Fox Shoks, and two new Tom Wood drive shafts. It took me 18 hours. I just ordered an AEV back bumper and tire carrier in preparation for my rims and tires.
I sure appreciate the help and advice with the rims. Im convinced to go as recommended with the 18 x 9 Fuel Anza anthracite and 12.50 35" tires. Toyo most likely over the Nittos.
