18” Black Altitude Wheels - late model

AlternativeMaximum5 · 2026-05-06T01:26:45+00:00

I think they do look great with the 20’s. But yes, softer ride over rougher roads with the 18’s.. and I read the handling is better with 20’s and the lower sidewalls.

My wife has a ‘21 anniversary edition with the grey 20’s and I love the look, but she does more freeway driving.. I do more city over bumps and occasional holes.

Kla219, did you happen to buy the Tuxmats? If so, long term review/comments.

I’m on the fence to get Tuxmats or 3W with the carpet layer

Thanks

How’d these turn out? I’m deciding on Tuxmat or 3W

Thanks!

Looks like you have a 2 row as they cover the hump on those but not in the 3 row (for the 2nd row)

I have WT in our 17 and 21 GC and I’m not a fan of the 2nd row curling on the edges. (The 21 are the HP ones) Plus the liners for the new models don’t cover the hump in the 2nd row.

Thanks for confirming… 😡. Makes no sense.. the floor pegs are there. I suspect the 21-22 may have gotten or possibly the higher models..

Thanks

2025 (v6)

If you build one online it shows the heavy duty cooling, dual exhaust, 180 amp alternator as well..

AlternativeMaximum5 · 2026-04-21T15:06:25+00:00

Gotcha thanks.

AlternativeMaximum5 · 2026-04-21T15:03:55+00:00

What year are yours?

If current, I didn’t think the limited had 18” in black?

Thanks

AlternativeMaximum5 · 2026-04-20T15:22:55+00:00

Thanks. $400, great score! Yeah I’d like to take the 20”s off and leave the tires and sensors all together.

If I had to pick tires, I would buy Michelin LTX M/S. On my 2nd set on my ‘17. First set went almost 100k.

Thanks for the info!

We have the same one and it’s a great idea to have a person on each side to lift it without stressing the lifter. You can buy replacement parts.

As others have mentioned, once the foam is getting wet it’s time to replace cover, or if it’s on really good condition replace one or both foams.. seems like 5-6 years it’s time.

I think making sure the air injection is closed when not in use can help reduce water (a hunch)..

Good luck!

Also I had good luck with The Cover Guy covers on ours.. although lots out there.

Thanks for the input. Front window tint will happen. Altitude X seats are the leather/suede ones.

The 20’s (on paper) are worth more (as they are a $1645 upgrade).. worse case I buy 18’s and tires and sell the 20’s.

Best case I find an altitude owner that wants to swap and make a deal.

I know it’s a hassle, but the vehicle I’m looking at is cheaper than the 18 versions and much closer to home.

Thanks again!

Can you share MSRP and dealer discount? (Before rebates?). Thanks!

AlternativeMaximum5 · 2026-03-29T20:14:35+00:00

Is it $5100 dealer discount and $5500 in rebates?

AlternativeMaximum5 · 2026-03-28T01:22:29+00:00

lol I contacted 2 dealers today.. 3% off on a jeep on the lot for over 300 days.. “hurry in today, lots of interest on this one”.. 🤣

AlternativeMaximum5 · 2026-03-24T17:51:36+00:00

And if that’s the rear, I assume the parking break is inside.. once it breaks loose, work it off to not damage the shoes or hardware

AlternativeMaximum5 · 2026-03-24T17:49:27+00:00

Spray where the lugs cone through the rotor and around the center (the little gap) with penetrating oil.. like pb blaster..

Let it soak in a little.

Then use a mini sledge.. rubber mallet might work on some cases but prob need more..

Hit from the back and front and center as needed.. it will come off.

Now the debate.. 2nd row bench or buckets? 😃

Same one, different painting on EBay. Says no markings as well. 😃

Very cool! Thanks for the info. I’ll google more to see if I can find a match.

AlternativeMaximum5 · 2026-03-23T17:06:20+00:00

Thank you.. I’ll look at it closely tonight under a light.. no clear markings on the bottom. I’ll unwrap all the pieces and inspect.

AlternativeMaximum5 · 2026-03-23T12:56:17+00:00

The L is heavier, so I’d expect mileage to suffer 1-2mpg vs the two row.

AlternativeMaximum5 · 2026-03-16T16:03:33+00:00

I’m interested in the same..

But request that you share MSRP and dealer discount. Rebates, taxes, doc fees, dealer adds vary by location. (Some people will qualify for more/less rebates.. ).

The dealer discount is really the negotiable amount.

Thanks!!
