by 7.5" wheel. I wanted BF Goodrich All Terrain T/A but
I cannot find a bigger size that will fit the factory wheels.

Thanks for the compliments guys. It has not seen serious off roading yet, but I am a huge fan. The wheels are american racing black crush 17x8s and the tires are Cooper STT, which I absolutely love. I have run 3 sets on previous TJs. They're great in mud, snow andon rock and last a hell of a long time. I rotate in the spare and they are good for at least 60,000 miles.

I'll be upgrading my 4-dr wheels when I get it and was wondering what bolt pattern they have
