Just checking the Cragar soft 8's in a 15"X7" will fit on the liberty. Then will a 31"X10.50" fit on that rim and my KJ once my Frankie II premium gets installed.

The 15x7 will rub on the calipers, get the 16x7 instead.

Some people run 15" wheels on the KJ without any problem. For a 10.50" tire I would go with a 8" wheel.

Just curious where you found a 15 x 8 with a 5.5 inch backspace. Also, I thought one needed 4.75 inches of backspace or less to clear the brakes.

If you drop down into the tire/wheel section, you will find more info than you can handle just by scrolling through it.
