Wheel offset
I'm looking at a set of wheels from a liberty to put on my XJ. It's the same bolt pattern, but the liberty is a high positive offset and an XJ is medium offset. I've read about what the offset is but I can't find anything definitive that tells me if they'll work. Anyone have experience with this?

I thought liberties were 5X5"
but anyways a positive offset means the wheel is more inside the fender, and vice-versa for negative offset. I've seen a wheel measurement chart around the forum that is very helpful you might be able to find it with a search.
*edit* Nevermind, I did a quick search you're right about the bolt pattern. See? Searching can be very helpful

Go meet the guy, bolt one up and see how they look and see if it'll work/ if anything rubs?
