16x7 40mm offset (like stock)

Weighs < 17 lbs.


I think they will look good on the patriot. i don't wheel my jeep but do go up a steep mountain road full of big creek gravel on occasion and hit the beach at times. I go slow so no big change of damage.

thoughts? thinking black with the machined lip.

i think i will gain a little oomph at the lower end due to less unsprung weight. Also getting yoko geolandar at/s in 215/70r16.

I should be at about 46/47 lbs total, which should be less than a new oem 17" rim with the gy sra's on it.....

they look great! to me at least.

total weight is 46 lbs... same as stock 17" oem setup THOUGH supposedly i am comparing my new setup (without wear) to the old setup with wear and they say you lose 5-10% or the tires weight eventually so that's about 1.4-2.8lbs PER tire in savings I have. I can live with that. :)
