That would be great! I've searched high and low but didn't find any on a JB. I have not, however, gone through the show me your wheels thread where posters sometimes do not state the wheels name so they would not show up in a search. I really don't want to go through that whole thing again

rim (rĭm) Pronunciation Key
n.
  1. The usually curved or circular border or edge of an object. See Synonyms at border.
  2. The circular outer part of a wheel, furthest from the axle.
  3. A circular metal structure around which a wheel tire is fitted.
These are by definition rims:




15"x6" steel rims, from Honda if i remember...bought new. Not sure of the offset, but they work; and are friggen sweet, especially with my silver lug bolts. Those are Nokian V's 195/60/15, if anyone wanted to know.
