I made the purchase pretty quick and did not go all out on them thinking I would upgrade within a year or so, but didn't. I haven't because I still can't find one I really want.


    So my question now is if I had to sell all or keep all but one what would you do if you were in my position?

    My current lineup:
    16 - Pro Comps with 265/75-16 A/T
    (Don't think they stand out enough and recently I have seen alot of them on JEEPS!)
    18 - Stock 265/60-18 Yoko Geolander H/T
    20 - Atech 265/50-20 Yoko AVS
    (I like the looks in a way and then I don't because they somewhat on the flashy side and not offroad side. Plus they are HEAVY!!!)

    I am pretty stuck on TreadWrights being my tire due to the value.
    285/65-18 for $145
    Anyone know of any other comparable prices?

    I really like these rims but I would like them in an 18, they come in 20s but treadwrights dont closest is 19.5 (would that work)

    In order of what I would like rim wise: Bronze/Gold or White, then Black.

    Really seeing what your opinions are and seeing what other resources are out there for rim or tire sources. Thanks for your advice in advance.

    Have you considered just loading a picture of the VX with the ProComps into a program like photoshop and trying some different colors on the wheels themselves?

    Of the three sets of wheels you have, I personally like the ProComps/AT combo for your VX, and if it's just that they don't stand out enough/are unique enough because of how many people have them on Jeeps in the area, you could always personalize them to you and your VX by simply making them another color.

    Paintshop is a great way to experiment and "see" your options first before making the actual change, so it can take a lot of the guesswork out of things before you get started.

    And IIRC, if you had any particular colors in mind, there are even a couple graphics program experts on the site who could help.
