4" backspacing (same as your stock XJ rims) and I would paint the inner spokes black. Not the best photoshop, but you get the idea:

no rdplz-that look pretty good to me


others-but the main reason im gettin these rims is cause they have cooper discovery lt's on them and they have deep tread left,and im in need of tires really bad,but they came off a 02 ranger 4x4 and im gettin these and tires for $100,and i know they aint the best lookin rims by any means but thats why i wanted to paint them black so they would be nicer and they be covered in mud most of the time anyway lol
