I am buying a 3 inch rusty's lift kit... Would black rock rims be good if I am running 31 inch tires... Should I get 16 inch rims and what tires should I get... I do not want it to rub

Most run 15" rims on the XJ's and black are fine the correct size is a 15x8" wheel with 3.75" of BS then you can run up to a 12:50 wide tire easy.


The reason most run black steel wheels is because they do not break when off road and the tires are aired down. Plus the fact if bent you can a lot of the time beat them out enough to take air and go on.


I run a Cragar Soft Eight but you can find look alike's at Summit Racing or Jegs for $40 something bucks with free shipping, remember you need 5 of them.

Rustys full leaf/coil lifts are one of the best quality of leafs/coils out there. Here is an older photo of mine with a 3" Rustys lift running the Cragar Soft Eights with 33x12:50x15" tires.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I have aluminum 16s and I wish so much I could either trade mine or buy some steel wheels and sell mine

They r 15 inch rims right... A guy told me the smallest I could go was 16 and I did not understand why because everyone goes to 15 inch rims

He is probably mistaking our XJ Cherokees for the WJ Grand Cherokees. they need 16" rims to clear the calipers...


I'd go 15" black steels if I could do it over again. I went 15" black alum....
