Jeep wheels

Graphite will look great. How does it handle and have you fried them out off road yet?

I do like it

Only just put the tyres on. Wheels went on in December and I ran around on the original 225/60/18 road tyres until they died. It's a bit of a mission to make the 255s clear every thing. Lots of trimming and beating! And still more to go

Looks great.

I intend to buy jeep wheels with BF Goodrich tires at 235/70 / r16, fit or not ???
Wheels are 5x114.3 7j I know that different central hole.
....thanks

Diesel what spec are the 16 steelies you had previously? Thanks

So nobody knows if fit ???
..... could sell them in time

I'm guessing mine were jeep just sold as freelander ones. Le large spigot hole was never an issue. The bolts centralised them. Most modulars aren't hubcentric on landies. I've got some spigot rings in my new alloys but ran around for ages without them with no probs.

Freebie spigot is 64.1mm jeep is 71.6mm assuming you get the correct ones bolt patterns are the same at 114.5 which just happens to be 4.5" so it makes sense for yanks to use it!

The offset is about right to not need spacers. ie. they stick out about an inch compared to standard

Look at jc600s thread as he bought mine off me

They should fit OK since the offset is greater on the Jeep wheels - they'll just stick out a bit further. Simply need to check they don't foul the wheelarch plastics I'd reckon, suspension/ steering clearance should be no problem.
I'm running 235/70 16s Michelin 4x4s on Freelander alloys, no problems with rubbing anywhere.

It fits. Just!
