Two tips for everyone who may mount these type of OEM wheel on 'their' Jeep - 1) Although it may be a 'slightly' better balance, there is more than enough surface area on the inside of these wheel to perform a dynamic (high-speed) balance using adhesive tape weights on the INSIDE of the rim. Those steel clips on the clip-on weights seen during the clean-up not only damage the clear-coat on the rim, but will also cause electrolysis that will eventually spread into the entire bead area of the rim. 2) Replace your two-component OEM lugnuts with one piece aftermarket lugnuts. The OEM lugnuts consist of a decorative tin cover over an open-style steel lugnut. These eventually become damaged with repeated removal and installation over the years, making it a royal bitch to fit a socket over. And even if you do, you may wind-up getting more than half of them stuck in the socket. And as always - whenever you're installing NEW lugnuts to old wheels... NEW wheels to old lugnuts... and especially when both the wheel AND the lugnuts are new - Be sure not only to torque them to factory specifications, but to re-check that torque setting after driving 50-100 miles. BTW - These tires/wheels look SO much better than the original ones! Sooo - What size ARE those TreadWright Claws? And do they rub at all in the front wheelwells? - I subscribed to your channel as I'm curious to see how this comes along.

Thanks for subscribing! The tires are 245/ 75R16. I had to cut a little excess metal from the front wheel wells to keep them from rubbing as much. They still rub when I take sharp turns. Hopefully a lift kit will fix that. Stay tuned!

Are the hub spacers reliable? I’ve seen a lot mixed opinions about them but I think they would be a cool mod.

I’ve also heard that they can be not so good for a vehicle. I’ve had mine less than a year but no issues so far!

Not sure. Will have to check the max psi on those tires
