Has anyone ever used 15" rims, which were standard size in the earlier years on a newer XJ that used 16" rims as the standard size? I have a 2000 XJ Classic and have someone looking to get rid of a set of factory aluminum 15" rims with BF Goodrich all-terrain KO's. I wondered if there would be any clearance issues with the smaller rims. I currently have the factory 16" aluminum rims with 225/70-16 tires.

You should be okay because to my knowledge the size of XJ brakes is the same for all years.

The larger wheels were purely cosmetic. You will have no issues going back down to 15".

Yes there's an 01 in my driveway with factory 15" rims from a 93, though it never at any time had 16 inch rims. 15">16"
