What kind of wheels are these on this Jeep? I think they are stock Jeep wheels but I'm not sure from what year or model. I like they way they look so I'm going to try and find a set once I figure out what they are.

They look awfully close to some of the ZJ and TJ wheels but not an exact match. I'm going through Google Images as we speak and I haven't found an exact match yet.

So you say they're called 'Canyons'?

The Canyon wheels have flat faces, those are Ravines.

lol a Ravine is similar to a Canyon... haha

PumpinIron, did you just remember that or do you have a list? I saw one before on some website, I think it was for actually purchasing new wheels, but my Googling turned up nothing.

Yep, they are factory Jeep Ravine wheels. They were an option on, I believe, '05+ TJ's, and I also believe were the standard wheel used on the older 2 door stretched TJ Wrangler Unlimited models.

I have them on my XJ. As far as factory wheels go, I think the Ravines and Moabs look the best. The Ravines are easier to find, usually cheaper, and tires will be a bit cheaper too as they are 15" rather than the Moabs at 16".

Probably a dumb question but to the Ravines bolt on directly to my 2000 Cherokee? I assume the lug pattern is the same?

I found a set for $350 with brand new tires so I plan on buying them.

Yep, same lug pattern. I chose to use 1.5" spacers on mine, just to push the wheels out a tad a widen the stance, but it is not necessary depending on tire size. I believe you can run up to a 29" without rubbing on stock suspension. Anything larger may require a lift or spacers, but don't quote me on that. Different tires will measure out differently;y even if the stated size is the stated size is the same.

For reference, I'm running 235/75-15 Firestone Destination AT with a 2" lift.
