Default ranger wheels

has anyone ever measured one of these to see what the backspace is? i am almost positive they would widen a XJ some because we all know XJ wheels are pretty close to being front wheel drive wheels (i actually know a guy with FWD wheels on a XJ and they look stock width wise)



i found three laying behind the shop at the junkyard i got my XJ from, trying to decide if i should buy them or not. i love the design of them, quite possibly my favorite stock wheel off anything.

better yet, anyone have a picture of an XJ with these on it?

Actually they are called Outlaw II not Warrior II.

From the Ranger Station:

The Ford Ranger, Bronco II and Explorer all have a 5x4.5 bolt pattern.
The basic Ranger wheel diameter is either 14x6 or 15x7 inches.
Stock Backspacing is usually 4.5 inches.
