What do you guys think of Ansen Sprints on a J10?

Ehh, kind of a cool vintage feel if you like that. I'm not a big fan myself.
Like THESE  right?

Those are them. I finally decided on my tires, Trxus Mts 31x10.5s.
I was considering these. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/CRR-3155860/
But I don't want to constantly clean them.

I like the Sprints. I know a lot of trucks had a similar rim as an option, but I don't see them anymore.

Cappa is smoking dope. Those are the coolest Jeep wheels around.

Biggest bummer is size availability. The stock ones are hard to find and when you do find 'em they're only 15x7 or 15x8. The Ansens are the same way - 15x8 is the biggest and you've gotta check the center hole diameter to make sure your hubs will fit through. Back in the day I think you could get wider ones, but the bolt pattern is more likely gonna be a car-specific 5x4.25 or 5x4.75. Maybe some old Mopar 5x4.5 are kicking around, but you'd need to piece together a set of 4 on eBay or something and it'd probably take you a while.

I'd love to see a 15x10 version for a 4x4 offered in 5-, 6-, and 8-lug. I'd run a set of 15x10s converted with beadlocks on my next build without blinking.

I only need an 8 inch rim anyway. I just found a pair of 15x10s on ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120488256258&viewitem=&_trkparms=algo%3DLVI%26its%3DI%26otn%3D2&category=43955
