Oh guys, how I love you.
I'm considering trading my ssr's for a more solid faced wheel such as wed kranza bazeria's or Euroline SL / Ordens. I just feel a solid faced wheel will make the jeep look much better since I'm not rocking some ridiculous BBK.
Or should I just make them wide?Last edited by Creation; 12-28-2014, 07:59 AM.

No I haven't, it's not really the small brake caliper. There's just nothing really showy behind my wheels worth running an open face for. I have brake drums in the rear, and small rotors in the front so it just looks a little funny.Originally posted by mikey G View PostHave you already blacked out your breaks with paint? Honestly can/ will make a huge difference in such a subtle way. I vote sticking with what you have but widening them. Just my .02.

I've tried to like the big style such as work dh, operas, etc but the body line just didn't fit the style. That's why I'm trying to steer towards the other side of solid face wheels.Originally posted by Reubencanyon View Post

First one to ever install, and document a aftermarket steering wheel setup for the patriot community.
My nardi wheel is stuck in Italy customs, so i'm borrowing a friend's wheel he had for just a few days until it arrives. The quick release just freed up so much room for me being 6' 8" getting in and out of the jeep. I'm finally ablet get out of the vehicle without warping my body.
The install was an absolute nightmare, a steering wheel hub puller couldn't really be used properly because jeep didn't make screw holes to thread the device into for proper leverage. It was a nightmare. But it's over, and I just need to fine tune the tightness of the hub, steering wheel angle, install the airbag resistors, and get my nardi.Last edited by Creation; 01-02-2015, 10:04 AM.

So many people are against what I'm doing, but they still can't deny the amount of work that's went into this and the amount of attention I've brought to the community. I'm still shocked I won, but glad that it didn't go to a lifted patriot!Originally posted by mikey G View PostCongrats haha.
