Im not sure one the KK wheels, but I can tell you where the snorkels are for the KJ, www.dpgoffroad.com they arent on his web page but he is the ONLY US dealer that has them, but just give him a call and he can hook you up with one



oh and his name is Dirk and his number is 316-776-9900

The KK is a 5 x 5" pattern and you would need an adapter set to put them on a 5 x 4.5" KJ.

No problem...

That's the first thing I looked into when I got mine. I wanted to put Commander wheels on it.

The JK, Grand Chero, & Commander are 5x5, as well.

Not quite, 93-98 Grand Cherokee's(ZJ)s use 5 on 4.5.

WJs, WKs, XKs, and JKs do not use 5x4.5

Unless they are 15" alloys. Most of those will not clear the the brake caliper.

I did forget to put the year on the Grand Chero. I knew the current body style had the 5" but I did not know what year it started.

Another Dailmler stupid a## move. They should all be the same. It would be so much easier, simpler, & probably less expensive to have the same bolt pattern across the line.

the KK has two-piston calipers doesn't it?

Wonder how different the caliper bracket is...and how different the knuckle is...and if things can be interchanged...and if the rotors are bigger...

I need to find a set of Keystone wheels, at any rate.

You need wheel spacers for them to clear.
