Ok so I have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to wheels and tires so I'm hoping some of you can help out. My cousin has 4 Interco Super Swamper Truxus M/T's size 33 x 12.5 x 15. He has a 2001 Ranger he was running them on. He read somewhere that the Ranger and Wrangler have the same bolt pattern, so we tried to put his wheels on my Wrangler on Friday and it looks like my stud spacing is quite larger than his Ranger. I'm thinking about getting 4 new steel wheels that will fit the JK stud spacing, but I need to know if these tires and wheels will fit with a stock suspension and if I will be able to turn the steering wheel lock to lock without problems. I was thinking about looking at 15 x 8 or 15 x 10 wheels. Also, I was thinking about getting wheels with a negative offset to help with steering clearance issues. Please help with any thoughts! Thank you!

 

I beleve the bolt pattern is 5x5and you will have to watchout with 15 inch wheels, some 15 inch weeks may not clear te calipers as for wheelspacing stock wheel spacing is 6.25 inches I think and you would want to go with somewheres around 4.25 inches of backspace

Edit: also if your jk doesn't have a lift, 33 inch tires will probably rub, so id recommend a 2.5 inch lift or something to raise your front end

 

Bolt pattern is 5 X 5 on the JK. I went with 17'' wheels on a 4.5'' BS not sure on the offset.

The issue with 15" rims is that a lot of them will not clear the brake caliper on JK's. You will want at least a 4.0 BS, but a 3.75" would be better.

If the tires rub inside the wheel well, you can bring in the steer stops a bit, or trim, or get a lift.

 

Awesome! Thanks! That link is answering a lot of my questions!

 

Awesome! Thanks everyone for the help! I just ordered Cragar Soft 8s 15x8s with 4" backspacing. I can't wait to get the tires mounted on them and put them on the JK!
