Yep - they sure do. I assume you mean a rear rim - they make a 3.50x17, same size as our stock rear rims. Here is the web link:

BTW, OEM Scrambler hubs are black. I think they went black when the engine case did.

Some people are like Slinkies. They're really good for nothing. But they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.
