i just need pics of what mine looks like now.. which have never been taken.. and if you want tires to last longer if you air down a lot then 15x10's are better.. they keep the side wall in more firm shape when you go super low.. (i disagree on going any lower than 20 with 31's and up)

i may as well chime in. I have the 15x8s with 4" backspace. Got'em from Summit for $40 each. See if you can get them to price match.

check 4wheelparts.com

they're not "cragar" and they're a little more money, but i think i remember seeing 3.75.
ah heck, i'll go look to kill my curiosity.

ah, here they are in chrome:
http://www.4wheelparts.com/Wheels/Ro..._pn=PCW99-5883

and in black with about 5 different backspace options from 2.5 to 4.5. wow.

i see a part number difference of a suffix letter "M". i do not know what the difference is. this may be worth asking about

HAHAHA! I forgot that was there. The jeep I was out with bet me that I couldnt get up as far as he did on that rock, as you can see, I surpassed his mark (the armrest).
