Here is a pic of mine. It has TJ 15X8 Canyon wheels now though. Bought it for $600 with the intention of converting it to 4wd. The donor Cherokee ended up having water in the tranny and the swap never happened.

Yes, they are 8". The ZJ had a similar wheel that was 7". These came off a TJ with the 30" tire package (Pre Rubicon option package). The rims that came with the 30" tire package were 15X8. I just took some pics of the back of the wheel where it says 15X8. I'll upload the pics if they come out. If not my spare is at home. I'll post the pic tonight.

I like my 2wd DD MJ. Averages around 23mpg. 4.0 Renix, 5-speed. I have a 4x4 diesel pickup, a 98 XJ for wheeling plus a few others. I drive this thing in the summertime. Someday ill get around to paint, wheels and tires, then it will be a little Ezer on the eyes! Actually been looking for a nice 2wd Renix XJ for a DD... Someday ill find one.

Thank god im not the only person who wants to lift my 2WD!!! My dad bought it brand new in 94 2 weeks after i was born and drove it to ATL everyday for about 7 years. Then we got a new car, so it sat until i turned 14 with only 147K. I got the sickness and cant stop buying things for her and ive put a healthy 20K on it in 2 years of city driving to school and work. Ill have a 3 inch lift on 31's shortly (Christmas or grad), then come cuts fenders, bumpers, rack, and some other toys
