Exclamation Does two different rim size matter?

I just put a 4.5in lift on my 96 xj and i was giving a set of aluminum rims that are from a 1979 ford econoline 150. I order the lug adapter for them but i was told that since the front rims are 15 x 10 and the rears are 16 x 10 that i cant put it into four wheel drive is this true ?

Depends what size tires you are running i guess, if they are both 35s or what ever shouldnt make a difference. Just wondering why you would want to do this. If they are different sizes you will cause major damage to your transfer case!

just make sure that all four are the same size, if not leave it in two wheel. But that would defeat the purpose of your jeep!
