What are you looking for? Cragars are cheap as dirt brand new. You can get yourself a brand new set for about 200 bucks keep that In mind when looking on ebay/Craigslist.

Don't bother with Craigslist. $46 a rim at Jegs with free shipping.

Will alloy rims from a 2000 Wrangler fit on a 1998 XJ? I don't know anything about backspacing, etc.
My XJ steelies look awful (PO primered over the rust)
What is a fair price to pay for 4 used Wrangler OEM alloy rims? With 50% tires on them..

If $45 bucks a wheel and free shipping is too expensive, start checking the classifieds. Brand new steelies are super cheap through Jegs, Summit, etc.
