Features & Product Details




The AEV Pintler wheel for Jeep Wrangler JL/Gladiator combines timeless styling with the innovative features and off-road strength that you’ve come to expect from AEV. However, this is not just another one-size-fits-all aftermarket black Jeep Gladiator/Wrangler JL wheel.

Designed specifically for the Jeep Wrangler JL and Gladiator

AEV designed the Pintler wheel specifically for the newest Wrangler because despite sharing the same DNA as the Jeep JK Wrangler, many aspects of the latest generation Wrangler and Gladiator are quite different, so simply re-purposing a Jeep JK wheel was not the best solution. The AEV JL/Gladiator Pintler wheel’s unique offset of +25mm, works perfectly with the various OE fender flare variants and provides the optimal balance of tire clearance, scrub radius, and handling. Additionally, this wheel features a larger center cap bore (62.77mm) for compatibility with the JL Wrangler’s OE backup camera and resized pockets for the larger factory lug nuts.

Features:

Compatible with Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Accepts OE lug nuts without the need to use thin wall socket
Compatible with the OE backup camera
Recessed valve stem for added protection
A356 T6 cast aluminum construction
Tested to stringent SAE J2530 standards
Molded AEV Center Cap included
Lifetime structural warranty

Notes

CENTER CAPS: This wheel has a center cap OD of 62.7mm, which is larger than the previously used 55.5mm OD center caps. 

WHEEL WEIGHT CLEARANCE: Due to the design of the wheel barrel/drop well on the Pintler combined with our high offset and the JL/Gladiator’s large brakes, clearance for stick-on weights inside the wheel is VERY tight. Standard thin .25oz stick-on weights clear the brake package. Larger .5oz and 1oz weights do not.

POWDER COATING WARNING: As a general safety precaution, AEV does not recommend powder coating aluminum wheels. The heat range and duration of the powder coating process may overlap the heat treating and aging of cast or forged aluminum wheels. For this reason, powder coated wheels will not be covered under AEV’s lifetime structural warranty. All repairs and/or color changes should utilize automotive type liquid paint.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
 
Q: Are TPMS sensors compatible?

A: Yes. The Pintler wheel is TPMS-compatible, and the design allows for easy installation of factory tire pressure monitoring sensors.

Q: Is it hub-centric?

A: Yes. The Pintler is hub-centric to Jeep applications, which ensures a precise fit and reduces the risk of vibration or wheel imbalance.
