    I bet you'd be the first Jeeper with pink wheels lol. Gunmetal will look sick for sure man. Be sure to post some pics once you get them all done.

    I think I am going to do Gun Metal for the face, and leave the center cap, lug nut holes, and inside sections silver. If it looks like ****, I will just paint them all gun metal

    Well my old lady over ruled on this on since its her dd. I ended up painting them metalic silver. Looks great so far, and they will be easy to touch up after trail rides.

    I will post pics later

    Matt-

    I am getting these put on today, are these different than my stock as far as back spacing. Will these create rubbing for me? I only have 1.25 inch Spidertracks, John has 1.5 on his? Just done want to have the rubbing start up again.

    My stock wheels are 7.5" wide with 43.8" offset which equates to 6" backspace.

    I *believe* the stock rubi wheels are 7.5" wide and 6.25" backspace.. So they'll may just sit 1/4" further inwards than your current wheels which will actually help clear the pinch weld area.

    Your 1.25" spidertracks make the rubi wheels effectively 7.5" wide with 5" backspace which is perfectly fine.
