I have planned to change the rim to the broader one but the problem is that the holes on rim/wheel are of not the same size. Still is it possible to fit the broader rim/wheel. How much should it cost and is it really nacessory to change the rim/wheel. |
The army version comes with broader 16 inch rims since they run 7.5 x 16 tires. If your jeep doesn't have that you should be able to pick it up from the same place where they dismantle the old army jeeps. You should be able to mount 235's on that rim. These rims are different from the very narrow OEM rims. I have 205 on the OEM rims but I doubt it will take anything more than that as it is only 4.5 inches wide.
