badazzelanore Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 I have to get rid of one set of my wheels which ones should I keep? Set of 4 Pacers on decent 31x1050r15's that came with truck Set of 5 2006 jeep rubicon wheels with old bald street tires. Which do yall like most and which will fetch the most on the open market?
hassyfoto Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 I'm partial to the Rubicon. Otherwise the Pacers remind of Ford wheels.
badazzelanore Posted November 16, 2014 Author Posted November 16, 2014 yeah I agree but I think the Pacers look more like truck wheels than the Rubicon wheels. Does anybody know if the Pacers are hub centric or lug centric?
PNWAlex1/9 Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 The pacers are period correct. But the rubicons look better, and are JEEP oem which wins out for me
Minuit Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Your Rubicon wheels are 5x4.5 so MJ, TJ, XJ, YJ and ZJ owners can bolt them right on without adapters. That style of wheel are popular with Jeep people as you probably know so you probably could sell them for a decent amount. Most of them (they're called Moabs) came off JKs and need adapters (roughly a hundred bucks) to fit the aforementioned vehicles. Personally, I prefer the look of the Moabs but the Pacers look good on your truck. Ultimately the decision is of course up to you.
Eagle Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 I always prefer OEM Jeep rims over aftermarket. As for the Pacers, I don't think they are hubcentric -- if they were, they wouldn't fit Fords. I would hold onto the Moabs and sell the Pacers.
dunnc1991 Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 I think you should keep the pacers and sell me the moabs....
Incommando Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 You could probably get more out of the Moabs if you are looking to sell them. Sometimes people pay ridiculous prices for them. I have seen a set of bare rims go for $600! For me that might be the deciding factor.
ScottJeep Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 I've put Jeep Rubicon Moab rims on everything I have. Hell I want a set now for the wife's 2012 KK since it's also 5x4.5! Maybe, I'm lucky but of the four sets I've purchased two came with tires and the most I've paid is $350.00. I call first dibs!
badazzelanore Posted November 17, 2014 Author Posted November 17, 2014 Lol you are right. I was wanting to put the moabs on my wifes 08KK. I might still do that since she has some major curb rash from a cop almost side swiping her while running code and pushing her off the road into the curb.
