Default Wheel questions

I'm hoping someone can help me with 2 wheel questions about my '96 XJ:

First, what is the correct size center cap? I'm assuming this is standard, but I can't find the answer through searches. I have measured it with a tape measure and it seems close to 3 1/8 inches, but I want to be certain before spending the money on center caps.

Second, can anyone identify the brand and style of the rim/wheel in the photo below? Or any suggestions on how I can go about identifying it? These were put on by one of the previous owners and I want to get one for a matching spare.

I apologize if this is in the wrong thread. There didn't seem to be a better one to put it in.

They appear to be a Cragar Soft 8, or an imitation of one.

Take a wheel off and go to a rim shop/custom wheel retailer. They should be able to measure the center hole with a pair of calipers and get you the right center caps.

They might even have some in stock that will work, but they need a wheel there to make sure.

Doesn't using a center cap kind of negate having the budget wheels?
