I've got a brand new Dick Cepek FCII 305/70r16 that I plan to use the the spare on the girls Jeep. dimentions are almost exact to the 33x12.5x15s she just got that I'd be crazy not to use it.


My question is: What 16" Jeep wheels are out there that could make a good spare for the 99. Even if it means anything else that's the same pattern as the XJ.. (5x4.5). doesn't NEED to a Jeep wheel. Opinions???

Cragar makes cheap steel rims like the soft 8 and window in 16s.Or hit the junkyards and find another xj rim like the ones you got.

Jegs also makes there own brand steel wheel in a 16" that looks like a Soft Eight, just bought a set for my grandsons 1/2 ton 4x4 Chevy PU. They are even cheaper than Cragar wheels.

I like having my spare wheel & tire the same as the other 4.

take your pick

That's some good read right there. Really opens up the options.
Guess I just need to hit the JY and start seeing what's out there.
I don't intend for this to get much use, but better to have one than not. (even if it's a 16 VS her current 15's)

got a link?

Found it. http://www.jegs.com/c/Truck-SUV-Whee...03214/10002/-1 However, there's NO 16's that offer 5x4.5, so that's a bust. Bummer.


This is the best deal I think I'm gonna jump on.

No I was not for sure what other bolt pattern/sizes they offer but did buy a set of the 15x8" ones for my sons XJ a yr. ago same wheel.

Bro truck. Stick with Moabs if you want 16".

Ion 171 is a good wheel and they are cheap. 16x8 this is what I run with 315/75/16
