Is there a big difference between 17 and 16 of Rubicon wheels? And do they all fit Liberty?
I think there is only just one set/type of 17" version of these wheels. I am trying score a set for cheap, so I just need to make sure they fit KJ.

all should be the same no matter if 16 or 17 as long as they came off a Liberty


WHOOPS SKIPPED WHAT THEY WERE OFF OF AND YES I KNOW BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!of course I assumed that anyone that had been on here for 2 or 3 months even would know the difference in Moab wheels :?

if your talking about the moabs then iirc the 17 are the wrong pattern and do not fit.

That's what I thought. I looked on a few different sites, and they said the newer 17s do not fit grand cherokee, older wranglers or commanders. It didn't mention anything about liberty.

I am not sure but I think there is one set that 5 on 5 and other 5 on 4.5 ? Only 5 on 4.5 will fit, afaik.

'03-'06 TJ rubicon MOAB rims are 5 on 4.5(16x8 with 5" BS),'07+ JK's with the 17" MOAB's are 5 on 5 bolt pattern and will not fit on a KJ.You need the 16" MOAB's from a '03-'06 TJ Rubicon.

My KJ came with 17"s. So I know the wheels won't work, but how about those tires on my stock rims?

The BFG MT's that come on the Rubicon JK's are 32" tall tires.
