Looking for a set of stock Aluminum jeep rims..... to replace my rusting out stock steel rims.

pondering these...

Is the offset,backspace the same as my 98 cherokee sport?

seems like a fair price...

1. Those are some really rough nasty looking rims, I'll bet they will bead leak like crazy.
2. They won't fit anyway, those wheels are 5 x 5, you need 4.5 x 5.

4.5 x 5
OK, thanks Turbo....

I'll keep looking.. not a big hurry but I'd like to get a set before winter.

edit:

Just spotted these.... off a 99 Sahara...

I have my old rims that came stock on the jeep I just picked up ... I'll sell them to you cheap ... You pick up the shipping.... They are a little rough looking ( old) off I believe a country model ...

Fred/N0AZZ

Those are 17" rims I think, they are on my stock 04 GC.


You can buy a new set of steel rims in the correct size to upgrade tires a 15x8" with 3.75" of BS for under $200 shipped from Summit, Jegs and others. Then you know what you have and not rusty either that you can air down for off road use with up to a 12.5" wide tire.

i agree with fred on this one. new vs used.

but those 99 sahara rims are from a tj. those will fit (5x4.5) and are a nice rim (canyon). the tire size is a little large if you're stock height, but will look great on a semi stock cherokee.

John T

whats your opinion on these?

4" backspace....
will that be a problem?

Actully, I'd rather buy the Cragars ... the Barts have some BAD reviews..
I never had a problem with Cragars.. in the past.
