@candyman:
I gotta say that the stuff I used worked miracles. These wheels had decades of cooked on brake dust, road salt, and neglect. I had to use some elbow grease and a stainless wire brush on the super hard stuff but they are WAY better than they were. If I had more time (and desire) I could have probably made them great. I'm happy enough with them as it is for now, this isn't restoration quality effort.
Is the dash brake light ONLY for the park brake or is there a sensor on the MC for fluid alert? I'll have to look when I get time. Maybe I knocked the P-brake wire loose when I was messing with the bottom sash AC stuff...?
I have pretty good luck with some parts stores. Some... Not so much. For me, AutoZone is a last resort. Can't stand them.
As for the tires... The width depends on a few things. If I'm building a more off-road oriented Jeep I will usually go wider. For stuff that is more dual purpose or majority on road like a DD, I'll keep the tires tucked in the fenders. They are a little pizza-cutter looking but I like it as it has a more expedition look.. like a factory capable Jeep.
Like anything, aesthetics are individual preferences. The nice thing is I get zero rub with the skinnies, can run factory wheels, and don't stress the wheel bearings much more than stock.
