Other stock TJ wheels I'm not listing?

Popular aftermarket wheels for TJs?

Include pics of any of these wheels.

Thanks.

There's a few other wheels too that I'm not sure of the specs on - The Alcoa wheels on the Tomb Raider edition and I think there is a 16x8 wheel that was available on Saharas at some point.

Thanks. Didn't realize all the stock wheels except Moab were the same BS.
So the Moab wheels would only give 1/2" more clearance on the inside right?

What aftermarket wheels have 4.5-4.75 BS?

you can run 31x10.5 without rubbing issues on stock wheels. (well, you might get a little rubbing, but a few washers under the steer stops fixes the problem in about 5 minutes.)
