Along with the new shoes that we just got for JET Li, our 2018 Jeep JL Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited, Brown Santa was also nice enough to drop off a brand new set of KMC XD231 RG RACE Beadlock Wheels in a machined finish. For those of you who are familiar with KMC wheels, these are the all new Robby Gordon wheels and they come with a beadlock ring similar to Machetes. While they are available in satin black, Cindy and I are big fans of a machined finish and think they'll look great on a bright white JL. I should note that they're only available in a 4.75" back spacing and this may be a problem for us being that we will be mounting them onto very large 37x13.50R17 Cooper Discoverer STT Pros. 12.50 wide tires would probably be a better fit but we love these new wheels so much, we'll be sure to make them work, one way or another. Anyway, below are just a handful of pics that we took soon after they were delivered. More pics are coming soon :yup:

Well this answers my question in the other thread :cheesy: can’t wait to see them mounted!! I do like the look of these. I wonder how much adjustment to the steer stops your gonna have to make for clearance

Hopefully not too much but either way, I can live with that. I just hope they don't rub the fenders too much as that would mean we need to install more bump stop extension.

I haven't seen these wheels before. I love the Machete rings, and like the Machete wheels. But these wheels look like a really nice combo. I like them a lot.

Now get them mounted. It is snowing OUTSIDE, not in the shop. But I did watch the video, so you were productive.

But get em mounted.
