Looking at these Rims

Mines a DD as well....

I like the MB or the one Matt posted the first one to flashy for me

[AJeepZJ]

I like the second one best - When it comes to wheels I really like simplicity.

I MAY BE WRONG BUT ACCORDING TO THIS http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp THE RIM WITH THE SIZE OF 17X8.5 -6 WILL STICK OUT A BIT MORE

[Matt]

Wheel width, backspace and offset are all related (if you know 2, you can calculate the 3rd)

How far a wheel sticks out is commonly referred to as "front-face". This is how much of the wheel sticks out past the hub surface and is just the wheel width minus the backspace.

8.5" wide wheel with -6mm offset = 4.5" backspace
8.5 - 4.5 = 4" front-face

9" wide wheel with 0mm offset = 5" backspace
9 - 5 = 4" front-face

Both wheels stick out 4" from the hub.

very well put my friend

Thanks

On a side note, i didn't want to muddy the waters.. but the actual "front-face" is 1/2 inch more than what i showed there. This is due to the thickness of the wheel lip. I had that all typed up and changed it since we were just comparing those two wheels; in either case, they both have the same front-face (4.5" is a bit more precise though)

You won't go wrong with the MB72 or the level 8 Strike 5 but you might also want to look at the Level 8 ZX. These have an options bolt on scratch guard as well and the spokes are a little more beefy looking to compliment the large body of the Commander. Here's a link.
