I can get a good deal on rims. but they are 12" wide. I know it is going to be a problem with them sticking out from the fenders, and setting up for the spare tire is not going to be fun.
Should I pass on these rims. Are they going to be a more pain in the a** than good.

the opinion among blueroket / magnummpi9 / chrometj / jeepgod is that if you buy those rims we will be certain to beat you HARD! not in a sexual or fun manor! ;D

wow! chuck norris! i saw you in the woods yesterday!!!
what size tire do you plan on running 12" wide? id run a 12.5 wide tire on a 10", however you loose sidewall flex and will end up rubbing your rims on everything if you wheel it
i would run a 14.4-16" wide tire on that wheel, but im not sure if youre going to run that big

if you have a 44" tire, then yes a 12" wide rim is good, I would never put anything over 8" wide on a Jeep with a 30/35 axles. when you move the tires even farther out, it puts a lot of excess stress on your wheel bearings and wears you axle seal real quick.
I would pass on them.

I guess that is a no on these rims. Thank guys. A simple no would have worked. But I get the point.
Thanks
