I am looking for a set of steel wheels for my 2003 KJ which most references say is a 16” X 7” – 4/5”X5 bolt pattern, 38mm offset and a 71.5 mm bore. <= correct that if needed. I found a set off a 1998 Cherokee, which the owner says are 16”. My research says the width, bolt pattern and bore are identical but I have found conflicting information on the offset. One reference says it is a “Medium Offset” and another says 15mm Can I use these wheels? I intend to mount a fairly aggressive snow tire in the 215 to 235 range. |

If 16s then yes they will fit Could be the same wheels some KJs came with only different color ( XJs came a darker color) |

I guess I will make the trip as I have not found any thing near the price asked - $80 for 4. |

So whats going to happen to your present wheels? ( looking for a cheap set so just asking)

I have already be offered (unsolicited) $200 so I think they are worth a bit more than that. |

I saw what they were not that of an expensive wheel just thought if you were going to sell them they could be painted in somewhat of a better color like dark gray |
