Default Help with wheel and tire fit. 18"

Hi! I'd like to put 18" wrangler sahara wheels on my xj 1999 Cherokee sport 4x4... My xj is stock...

Do I need to do modifications?
Do I need a lift kit?
Which tire size will fit?

verify that your bolt pattern on the eighteen inch wheels is, 5lug x 4.5 as i beleive is stock for wranglers. then if you run 225-50r18 you speedo will be accurate to stock

I believe the 18" rims came off the jk. Their lug patterns won't match yours without adapters.
