those wouldn't clear my calipers. I tried 4 rims. I am going to have to run wheel spacers.


I returned the 15x8's and went with 15x10's and they dont fit either.

these beloware what i have...the have to have 1/4 spacers, you can get at pepboys for around 7-10 bucks
spacers are only needed in the front, rear clears fine, i have these on my jeep. not sure if the 15x10s need wheel spacers

sometimes they work, sometimes they dont, I have heard stories of 15" wheels clearing one JK, then they sell them to another JK and they dont clear the calipers....

Sorry for being confused from what I can tell 15" wheels on JK's are hit or miss.

My brother has 33X12.50X15 Goodyear MTR's & Soft 8's with a 4" backspacing off his TJ that he is willing to sell me very cheap. I have looked into the spidertrax adapter kit to change my lug pattern to 5 on 4.5" but these spacers are 1.375" thick. I figure the extra width would help but I don't want to have a rubbing issue has anyone done this with older TJ wheels? Any info would be great.

I don't think the caliper will be a problem..they'll stick way out (4" BS+spacer width) ..fenders might be a problem when flexing though.
