    Thank you! That's about what the specs look like on the wheels I ordered.

    I haven't researched much on wheels/tires but do any of you have 15x8 with 33s? I like the look of the smaller wheels and I don't want them to stick out too far from the fender

    I bought them the first or second week of this February, 2021. By the last week of February, they were cracking. JBA is shipping out brand new UCAs with these faulty boots already installed, unfortunately. JBA outright told me it was a manufacturing defect with the rubber boots, and they are working to get a new "clean screen poly boot" sent out to those with the failed or failing rubber boots. The new poly boots are delayed and we should have already received those already. We are still waiting... and the eta is always "a couple weeks out now" My patience is about to expire, but I'm not losing any grease, yet.

    Was more for someone who may look into MOGG parts for a similar issue but won’t find it, just clarifying. Why take it so personal?

    Right, but like is it a simple process? Every 3-4 months?
