Hey we just got a 05 limited liberty with the 3.7 loving it! For my wife as she is short and the liberty has such great visibility! We test drove it a fell in love right away that we had to buy it even though we still want a CRD model. Question, I have been searching for the answer but can't find it but what model jeeps can we get other wheels from that will fit without adapters mad spacers. We have 17 in chrome wheels now that are a bit bling bling for us. Do all the liberties have the same offset or just the 1st gens?
Thanks. Erick

Oh, I am mostly a old VW bus guy, had a VW thing that I used to wheel around and was quite fun, Next offroader was a Steyr Puch Pinzgauer which was fantastic off road, then came its older little brother the Haflinger( still have it). Super small and great offroad. Had a rare VW synchro crew cab Hunter with front and rear diff locks then wound up getting into a really modified suzuki samurai with missing link suspension lockers and all the goodies. Then a fj40 landcrusier , neat machine with mild lift but super pig on gas. Had a disco for about 2 weeks tha t I got cheap but being cheap and a disco it needed lots of work. Loved the visibility but not the pain. Which brings us to owing a nice blue 05 limited liberty. A nice extension and addition to our 06 town and county limited. Great. Visibility unlike most cars today and short and tall unlike my short wife;) this one is for her buti really like it too!
Later, erick

Only wheels that will fit unlifted are other Liberty wheels
there are a few other Jeep wheels out there but they have to be 16 inch
even the Moabs don't work too well unlifted as they are too wide for the tires you are able to run
May check out some Renegade wheels they look good

Oh and Welcome

Thanks Tom, I am sticking with stock look, I don't care what height rims just looking for different options, so 16 inch minimum and liberty wheels both 1st and 2nd gen. Liberty. Keep seeing stock wrangler rims for sale cheap but I guess they won't do.

Most stock Wrangler are 15 inch, and they won't clear the caliper.
Only 15s that will are a steel wheel like the Soft 8s etc
