Default New Wheels and Tires

Dick Cepek DC2 17x9 and FCII 33x12.50/17s. I freaking love the way they look. Ride is real nice and I dont know what the hell people are talking about with the tire being loud. These are not loud at all.

I've seen FCIIs on a red Ram somewhere before, can't place where though??? LOL...


Looks good. Wait till they wear in a little bit, you'll start to hear 'em slappin' the pavement. Which I don't consider a bad thing...

wheels were 550 for the set and tires were 1200. After warranty and a few other things it was right at 2k.


Im not too worried about hearing them. Im running cherry bomb extreme w/ turndowns, little noise from the tire wont be nothing lol. I did however make that guy feel stupid that told me they wouldnt fit. Even busted out the paperwork and showed him where it said "lock to lock test - check, wheel fitment test - check" then asked him...i though you said they wouldnt fit? He didnt have nothing to say lol

Looks good man. I personally really liked those wheels and thought about going with those but suddenly it seemed everyone in town was getting those, especially the jeeps. It seems like these are the "rockstars" of my town.

OMG I love those Cepek wheels, but they didn't come out with them until about a year after I bought my Mickey Thompson Classic IIs (not that I'm unhappy at all with the Mickey's). The chrome ones really caught my eye when they came out.

I'm kinda glad I missed out now though, EVERY damn lifted Wrangler I see down here has the Cepek wheels, mostly the black ones, but a lot of the polished ones as well...
