Look at this chart and go measure them for yourself and you can determine if they'll fit if the seller doesn't know what they came off of.

Forgot the backspacing measuring chart:

I believe the stock XJ wheel backspacing is 5.25".

That would be ideal...

Do you have a lift on it? If so, how much? Stock axles? Fenders stock?

You're quite welcome.

IDK, that's what the measurements are for. You'll have to determine that. Take your measurements from the wheels you're looking at and what's in the charts I gave you and see.

Let us know what you find out.
