Smile American Racing wheels?

Hi all Jeepers!! I have a question for anyone that can answer...I have a 2007 Jeep wrangler 2dr X model with 16" stock steel rims. I was wondering if American Racing Python (chrome) series 720 rims would work on my Jeep? If anyone could help me out, it would be greatly apreciated. thanks.

It all really depends on what size rubber you plan on running. But you will have to watch the backspacing. These should work if you plan on running the stock size rubber. You can always use spacers if you change your tire size in the future

Only thing they show with the 5x5 bp is a 15x8 wheel. The 15's seem to be hit or miss as to whether or not they'll work out on a JK application. That size shows 3.75" backspacing, so that shouldn't be an issue unless you need to keep the tires covered up. Best bet is to see if you can find a local dealer to test fit one onto the Jeep to make sure there's no brake clearance issues before you go ahead and commit to a set.
