CJ7 Rims

I've been searching for some cheap, but decent wheels. I located some Rugged Ridge p/n 15500.10, black wagon wheels on ebay. A set of (5) for a buy it now price of $287.00, plus around $30.00 shipping. These are 15 x 8, 5 on 5.5, with 3.75" back spacing. Just wondering if this was a good deal or not?. Thanks in-advance, for your comments.

I've seen brand new wheels on some place like 4wd or 4wheelparts or something for about $55 a piece. I don't trust eBay all that much, but heck I'd look on Craigslist if I were you. I've got them in my area for about $20 a piece if you want to paint them yourself to save some money

Yep, I've already searched Craig's List in eastern North Carolina. Nothing worth mentioning. I'm wondering if these Rugged Ridge rims are reliable, and if they're the correct size. I'm leary of cheapie foreign recycled "beer can" steel. I thought they were a decent price with shipping.

I have read several times that the vast majority of the black D-window and 8-hole black steel wheels are made at the same place and sold under various names.

If I am reading this right they will ship them all for $10.

These meet the same standards as the rugged ridge and the ad copy is similar enough for me to think they are the same wheel. Read through the specs ads to see about the standards

Inc Command, thank you so very much for the info. That's a much better deal.
