Those look good. I've been searching myself. It's a shame the Jeep rims won't fit our Daks. I've ran across lots of new tires and rim combos with 300-8000 miles on them for $500-600 range. Like these http://www.louisianasportsman.com/lp...e_ad&id=236221 and these http://www.louisianasportsman.com/lp...e_ad&id=232707

Love the new rims! I like how they have a factory look but still look sharp. 17" is a nice size for our trucks.

looks good! i woulda went with a more agressive lookin tire that really sets off the dakota like the All terrains. But it looks good though!

I hear ya, but I don't go off roading, and the ride I got from the Wranglers was HORRIBLE.

I will be posting the factory 16" alloys with low mileage Wranglers soon...

I am gonna get the chrome door moldings next:
