Took the stock 14" steelies off and put on some 15" Jeep rims with 225/75/15 tires on that I got off CL for $150.00. The front 2 are about 75%. The back ones are about 50%.
 
Those look good on that actually. I've seen someone elses truck with 18 in wrangler rims and it looked like poo.

Did you have to use spacers to clear the hub snout on the front?

On my Canyon 15x8 wheels, I had to have the center holes bored out to clear the front hub snout and then used aftermarket push-thru centers>>>

Bored hole without center cap, you can see how far out the snout is:

With push-thru center cap:

Nah, I think these were off a 93-95 Grand Cherokee and I did not even take the center caps off. I scrubbed the brake dust and grease off the backs and just cleaned the tires up some and they fit right on. I used my Ranger lug nuts and I torqued them to around 85-90 ft/lbs. Took it out for a test spin and no shaking or rubbing.

looks good, now to work on that rusted out wheel well! lil sheet metal /fiberglass and then some fender flares :thumbsup:

" rebuild it. We have the technology. We have the capability to build the world's first bionic ranger. AppletonBill will be that ranger. Better than it was before. Better, stronger, faster."

But those rusted out wheel wells is what gives it character. :laughing:
 
i am new so I dont know if that is why I can not enlarge your profile pic to see the rims. I have 14 in and like you want them gone for 15 or 16 in. Buddy has 15 in jeep on the purple 3rd gen in picture I can use. With my truck all og parts, outside shocks and front springs is there anything else needed to fit the jeep rims? I want to lift the front to level it our as well. Thanks,
