Need opinions on what this wheel will look like on my Jeep. I was able to get them off ebay cheap. 17x9
This is my jeep.

Gorgeous LJ you have there! Great looking wheels, too. And like @Kiwi TJ said, I prefer 15" wheels, but on the LJ, the 17" might look just dandy! What size tires will you be going with?
Yeah, I only like all black wheels on white, silver, yellow and army green/black set up TJ’s.
The Quadratec Rubicon Extreme are very similar to the Mammoth if you want to take a look.

I like them on your Jeep with the red solid color and black flares. Looks good!
White can be difficult because too much black makes it look out of balance. I much preferred silver wheels over black on my TJ and it wasn’t until I switched them out that I knew it.
It might be a bit different for you due to your hard top and fender colors
That’s what I’m talking about. If you think of my red Jeep, what’s your opinion on color of a pintler style wheel? Argent, black or silver? My wheels are taking a beating on the trail and they are going to be wrapped in some 35’s for wheelin and I’m going to get a new Pintler style set for DD and wrap in 33’s.
I look at those and I lean toward the Argent or Silver, and probably the silver. What does your aesthetic thermometer think?
Hah I’m mixed. I think with the soft top at least the argent looks very good (see Daz) but I think the silver would be a good classic choice too and maybe looks slightly better with the hardtop to give it more pop. Both are solid choices though. I would probably get argent.
Not a big fan of the black I feel it just gets lost.
I think jeepstersteve, techster, and Daz have red Jeeps with them (pintlers or bridgers) in argent so you can see some pictures

I'd go Argent. Silver looks too light, and I don't care for Black wheels. If you want Silver, Polished looks way better IMHO...It really pops with Bright Red and White.
