I'm in the market for some 15" rims and was wondering what some good suggestions are for fairly cheap black wheels. I've got a 2.5" lift and 30" tires, what would work best for me.

Cheers.

are you going to go to larger(wider) tires in the future? if so you might consider some 15x8's from american racing or something.

other wise I'd just rattle can some of the factory jeep five spoke steelies. (imho)

Not going to go wider than 10.5's. Junkyards around here want $50 a piece for the stock rims :\ so I figure I might as well go aftermarket. Biggest tire I'll have is a 31x10.5.

You can get the crager soft 8s for about $50 each from jegs and you can do a diff backspace too.

I used the Quadratec catalog and went into Discount tire and they matched Quadratec's price, before shipping. They were about $35 a wheel.

What should I be looking for backspacing wise?

Summit Racing had Cragar soft 8's for $40 before shipping, so I think it's about $50 shipped, if I'm not mistaken.
