By "Rubi Wheels" I mean the wheels off of the new Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. Sorry about that.

I've got a 98' with a 3.5"RE. I put Rubicon (actually called "Moab") wheels on it.

Phunkadelic had a set on for a year or so.
They scratch if rain hits them.
Honestly, the clear coat is for chit if you drive offroad at all.
Ironic, ain't it?
On the other hand, Phunk has 'special' driving skills, so maybe its not the wheels.
HTH.

Dont forget that they will limit your selection of tires(I gave up on my 16's for this reason).Also most 16's are quite a bit stiffer due to most being D or E rated!

You left out....16's have less sidewall deflection when aired down and carry heavier loads. I like em........

I've been running 16's for a long time now and finding the right sized tire has never been a problem. I run 285/75-16's now and will be going to 315/70-16's in the future and used to run 265/75-16's. I like 16's for Cherokee because they are narrower than 15's for the same given height. Mine are 33x11.5. Now that BFG has the 33X10.5 there is another chioce but talk about limited! Most manufacturers are making more and more 16" sizes. The big minus to 16's is price. Some manufacturers feel 16's are way more valuble than 15's. It may have something to do with their higher load rating though.

HTH,
