    You can say that again... I mean im not really in the market now, just trying to figure out about how much I may be spending down the road. Spacers are alright, but now with a little one riding around I would rather them off. Dont get me wrong, my spacers have treated me well...except for 2 years ago when my wheel came off my jeep...

    Just would rather get rid of that fear all together

    Being that you have a WK you have a bit more leniency than us XK guys.... but the envelope is still pretty close.

    I am getting some Black rock steelies or Yuma's this week, but they are both a 0 offset rim. The Savegre's are a +10 which is as far as I would go if you don't have a SL. I ran them when at 2" on 265/70's and they were a good fit.

    I love the look of the Yuma's and the price - Black Rock is a great deal for wheels. If you get either, let us know how they fit. My main concern is the Caliper/Caliper Bracket. I have the pinch weld mod done so Im not too worried about the tire rub.

    How much do those Black Rock steelies weigh? Can't find that online. I would love to get steel wheels when I get bigger tires, but I am concerned about how much the extra weight can affect mileage negatively.

    Adams running the black rocks...... they required 1/4" spacers to clear the caliper arbor. So if your goal is to eliminate spacers, might want to look at other options.

    I was secretly hoping that Black Rock Alloys would sit differently.. haha. I do like some of what ATX wheels have to offer as well. Just gotta save coin now

    Good point.... didn't think about a difference between steelie & allow models. I'd definitely test fit one first before ordering a whole set.

    The Black Rock steelie weights approx 10 lbs more then the oem wheel so I was told. I definitely noticed a huge difference in weight between my 265/70s on oem compared to 285/70 on the black rocks. Those suckers are heavy!

    Hoping Valspacer is the tester if he gets the Yuma's

    Yeah Steelies are a bit heavy for my liking
