Guy on craigs says these are off an old dodge 2wd. Would these be slightly off set on a 4x4 GC. They look like the lugs set a little deeper than my GC but would like some opinions/thoughts ....thanks
reason I'm asking is I'm wanting to put 32s on my jeep and hoping these would be off set on a jeep so my tires would fit

Are you sure the bolt pattern matches up?

WJ Grands have 5 x 5
ZJ Grands have 5 x 4.5

Dodge Ram 1500 Pickups from
74-79 had 5 x 4.5 bolt patterns
80-09 had 5 x 5.5

Could be. But then again it could be a wider rim too and that's why it looks deeper. For $50 though I'd give it a try. Worst thing that could happen is you meet the guy and measure the back spacing and they're the same.

Put the tire on its face place a straight edge across the back and measure to the mounting flange

I think 5.5". I could be wrong so don't take my word for it.
