Wheels

They look a lot like the Coopers that I have on my J/C 101.

 

You can't beat that price and they get good reviews. Made in china. There are a lot of good options out there over the name brands. I didn't know the Mud Claw was a Cooper line.

 

The 235/75/15 is only a 28" tall tire.
What do you plan to do with this jeep?
A set of 31x10.50's on 15x7 wheels would probably be better option.

 

really? I thought they were equivalent to 31's. thought i heard that on here.
the 33's I put on there has reduced my top speed too much to be enjoyable.

I'm a dirt/gravel road kinda guy and also pavement to and from work and errands around town. no serious terrain or obstacles in my future.

 

It technically specs out at 28.88", but in real life it will not be that tall.

 

My '69 has a V6, T-14, 3.73s and no overdrive with 31x10.50x15 tires. It goes down the highway at 60+ mph with no issues. They look good with a 2.5" lift plus the wheels I mentioned earlier, and the tires are inside the fenders. The tires just barely rub the springs at full lock.

i didnt mention that i do prefer the tall skinny tires. my poor little 134 engine thanks me.

If that's the case, 16 inch wheels are probably a better option. My '68 came with 16x7 'Soft 8' wheels and LT235/85R16 tires. They are about 32" tall. As Finocj noted, tires in this size tend to be high load range and may not ride as soft. It's basically a 3/4 ton pickup size.





The wheels are available on Summit but like everything else have gotten more expensive than they used to be: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/crr-3977755

 

I could do 60 no problem all day with the 235/75r15s. When I sold the wife's jeep I swapped out those tires for the new 33x12.5r15s that were on her jeep. Cruising around I noticed my top end was suffering lots.

 

I keep F134 Jeeps with 4.27 axles limited to no taller than 29”-30” tall. You might be able to pull 32”s if you are running 5.38 gears.

I dug these wheels out from the corner of my shed. Your thoughts? Not sold on white, but not sure what goes with orange either.
Figure use these to save up until I get what I want, some nice aluminum wheels

 

There is a song...
Paint it black.

 

Keep 'em white. Old school cool!

 

I like em’. Classic, durable, rugged, steel utility wheel that takes abuse. I always liked the wagon wheels. Like a fool I gave a set of 15x8’s away a few years ago… they even had the stem holes on inside of the rim (protected from rubbing).

 

I like those wheels..
