    Instigator! IMO wheel choice depends on the overall appearance of the vehicle. Same thing with auto colors. A large car can look ugly in one color while a small car can look good.
    Some times it is just overwhelming and bell-bottoms and mini-skirts will be back. :D

    It had been sitting under the trees for 30 years when it was given to me. First time I climbed into it , I stepped through the under seat tool box and out the bottom.

    Oh, yeah. Taking the black wheels off really did make a big difference. :)

    Looks perfectly balanced. I've went through your messages but didn't see any posts saying what brand and height lift or tire size. I really want the same look for my 1975 Cj5

    The tires are called Trail Finder All Terrain. Purchased reasonably priced at America's Tire They are a 265x75R16 and measure an honest 31" tall.

    Rough Country 2.5" lift, Ruggid Ridge heavy duty shackles and I did have to add a double cardan drive shaft from Tom Woods.
