Good evening everyone,
I just purchased a 2004 RME that has the Alcoa wheels on it. I'm not a huge fan of them and am considering selling them. Since it is a RME, would it lose value if it tried to sell it without the Alcoa wheels since that is one of the more obvious differences that make it a RME? I don't plan on selling the Jeep any time soon, I'm just curious.
The guy I purchased it from said that if I put 2" spacers on top of the springs, front and rear, I could then get wheel adapters to run the new JK style wheels, more specifically, Rubicon take offs with the 32" tires. Will this really fit without rubbing? Is it safe on the highway and off road in this configuration or would a suspension lift be better? I will most likely stay with the 32s unless there is a significant enough reason to go to 33s. The 32 take offs seem to be pretty plentiful and I don't intend to do rock crawling or any double black diamond type trails. I live in Florida and take it to Ocala and will hopefully ship it to AZ when I go on vacation, but again, nothing too crazy.
Thanks in advance!
