    Default Do the wheels I received look better than the wheels I ordered?

    Wheels I actually ordered in bottom picture.
    I need to get the black center caps I ordered they shipped with the chrome colored centers and I don't like them. Also the advertized wheels do not have black around the rim. And even more strange I did not notice the difference til I took these pictures. Whats your opinion on the difference with the black edge instead of the machined edge?

    I will be putting on a OME 3.5 inch lift kit with a body/motor lift in a few weeks but bought the tires & wheels first. 255/80r17 KM2 and Raceline Renegade wheels.

    I am still not sure I like the wheels I had hoped the silver would be a little less shiny. But that's what you get ordering wheels over the internet

    The wheel you ordered looks better with the silver edge and would add a nice contrast to the black in the tires imho. But the problem of coarse is trying to exchange them. It will look good when you lift it.

    I think they look fine.
    And as previously stated, good luck trying to exchange them.
    Once mounted, you are pretty much hosed unless there is a manufacturers defect. Variation in coloring or shading and all of that other disclaimer stuff.

    The wheels look good to me. I would've gone all black but that's me! Oh please don't put on a big body lift...they're terrible, causing lots of body roll on/off road. The OME 3.5 will be nice, they make good stuff. Nice jeep BTW

    Had no intention of dismounting and returning especially for the price I paid for them. It is a moot point already as I just got off the phone with the manufacturer and they are only offered with the black edge. They had failed to update their website marketing photo. But I will be getting the black center caps.

    I mostly find it funny that I had not noticed til I took these pictures. Besides in no time the edge will be silver from rock rash.

    and here I was going to ask him if his cute little jeep came with a Ken-Doll

    (Seriously might consider adding some suspension to it.)

    Yeah to much lift on jeeps causes the drive shaft to hit in someplaces when frame twists, a small lift is OK.
