Holy wow. Is there anyway you can find out what rim that is? Every rim I find in a 20x9 or 20x10 size doesn't have enough negative offset to justify the purchase. I'm hoping to run 4.5" tri link RE lift w/ 35x13.50 MT baja claws. These are the best rims I've found yet.
I see it's not a TJ. Do you know his bolt pattern on that thing or does he have an adapter/spacer?

Here are my old rims. 18x10. Mounted on 37" Toyo Open Country M/T's.Sorry not sure on the backspacing, its on full width axles so I didn't care about asking about backspacing when I bought them.

If you are going to run lower than 36in tires then I would go with a 16in rim or lower.
37" tires on 20" wheels gives you just about the same sidewall height as a 33" tire on a 15" wheel.

I would run 15'' rims if I could. But with the extra large front brakes on the wj's you can't run smaller than 16, unless you grind down your brake caliper.

I was worried at first bout such small sidewalls cause I wheel in moab A LOT, and I can't air down as much as most people, by I was actually suprised at how well they did, not a problem once, and I only went to 30psi, I am gunna try 20 next trip, shouldn't have a problem. Granted, the more side wall the better, but 33's or bigger do just fine on 17's. Its not any different than 31's on 15's....
