Ignore the small tires. I mean the wheels themselves. Those wheels are off of my favorite SUV, the 1st generation Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT-8. They measure 20x9 in the front and 20x10 in the rear. The OEM ones are forged. Forged 20" wheels. They must be impressively light. I imagine someone like David would love a nice forged set of 20's (hint hint David). I personally love the way they look and think its a nice change from the normal SRT 10 wheels. The only negative is you'd have to run some adapters to fit the truck. I'm so tempted by these.:baby:

I have owned 2 07 Grand Cherokee SRT8'S So I am partial to them. They look great in my opinion.. I'm even thinking about down sizing from my current 24 " wheels and tires and going with a set of the 5 spoke SRT8 wheels on my truck

I will now worship you for owning two SRT-8 Jeeps.
All kidding aside though those things are so bad ass. I would love one.

Those are very nice, I like them staggered. Plus, the GC srt8 is one of my all time favorite vehicles, too!

Yes! You saw! I'm curious as to how much they weigh with the forging. I would love to grab a mint condition Grand Cherokee SRT-8, but I actually need a bed.

Nice! I like those, and I know they have a way nicer interior, but I LOVE the WK1 (1st Gen) models.

I like them. If you keep them are you planning on leaving them polished or blacking them out?

Front , 36.2 lbs. Back, 37.6 lbs.

Not that light really for forged rims.
Then plus adding the adapter weight makes even more unsprung eight. Chrome clads weigh 34lb..

I like the rims, but chrome clads look almost the same.

Wow, I'm surprised they are that heavy... How much do my wheels weigh?

Damn. That's disappointing.
