Default Factory rims

Hey everyone,

I have a 96 xj that I cannot find the rim centercaps for. When I bought it these were the rims that were on it. I figured they were factory Jeep rims but I cannot find them anywhere online. Can anyone identify them? I’d like to know the name of them and/or what vehicle they originally came on.


They are 16 inches and I believe 8 inch wide
*EDIT- I just found my build sheet and it originally came with 15x7 rims. So this are definitely not the original

They are not factory Jeep, but I'm not sure what they're off of...

Default Wow!

Thank you so much! Thats definitely it. You saved me hours of looking around online.

Any idea if the jeep center caps will fit these guys? I searched that model of rim for "blank center caps" and a jeep cap came up. It mentioned something about the Jeep and Mopar rims being from the same mold or something. I need to look into it more.

Thanks again!

Ebay is where I would check, most of the sellers will have a list of what the part will fit. I've gotten a few parts off of Ebay with no complaints.

Not sure if these will work or not. They're off my '96 15x7 rims.


Rim opening must be 6.5" where these fit.

Thanks EZEARL, ill do some more research. I think if I get the right bolt spacing I could probably modify something to fit

Default Wrap up

so as I was looking for some caps to work, I stumbled across some rubicon rims that I’ve always wanted for a good price on Craigslist. New rims, no need for caps. Thank you all for your help!

Only the 16" rubicon rims fit the XJ the 17" rubicon rims need adapters to fit the XJ .
