Does anyone know the width of these wheels? They are off a 98 GC.


Also, do you know the backspacing, or at least how the backspacing compare to XJ stock steel wheels.

Thanks you

since they come off a zj, they're more than likely 15x7 5.00" BS.

And how they'll compare to yours depends on which you have.


Oh. And they're called Canyons.

Thank you. Do you know what the BS is on factory XJ steel wheels?

I found these on CL, the guy has 5 rims, 4 have ok 235/75R15s. I have no interest in the tires, but if the wheels will give me a little wider stance and control are clearance if I put 31x10.50s on my XJ, I may get them if I can get a good deal

These are my factory XJ steelies

Should be that same backspacing and width. You wont see any wider stance whatsoever. I'd look for some wheels with around 4.00" backspacing or less if you're wanting a wider stance. Some black steelies can be had for pretty cheap on craigslist.

Thank you. That info is what I wanted, it will save me some money. They loock to have less BS than mine, but just going by pictures I wasn't sure.

THose are canyons.. They are 15x8 ...Pretty cool wheels, one of the only 8 inch wide factory jeep wheels, so...they are an inch wider than your wheels you have... but wont give you a wider stance..as the back spacing is basically the same.

xj_maniac_newb

Lol TJ canyons are 15x8 with 5.5" and ZJ canyons came in 15x7 with 5".. If they came stock on a ZJ they're the 15x7's.

Xj88

Looks like you are right..
I had no clue that they made 2 different width canyons.. Weird..

OP:
You would be better off buying a set of jegs soft 8s.. like 180 bucks for a set..shipping and all

xj_maniac_newb

Yep doesnt make much sense. x2 on the jegs, unless you're just in the market for some ravines.. then you could buy Dave's.

glass3222

What are the specs are the ravines?

Xj88

doh! i have icons.. they are somewhat rare...they are 16x7 ...think they have 5 inch back spacing...
They arent gonna give you a wider stance..they just look nice..and they are factory jeep wheels, dont see them everyday.

xj_maniac_newb

Damnit i always get the ravines and icons mixed up. Happens every time.

Xj88

Haha..so many jeep wheels...
Turbines, icons, ravines, canyons, moabs, eccos.. damn..there are like 3 more..
I would say though that the icons are the most rare out of those though.
I would keep em but I dont want to run 16" wheels.

glass3222

I want to keep 15" Much cheaper tires

I just thought I had a good deal on those canyons, but I needed to find out the specs. Thanks eveyone.

glass3222

I found some good info on factory jeep wheels, or at least TJ wheels.
