I have a 2001 XJ and am a newbie to this board. I was wondering if anyone was certain if any of the Rubicon wheels will fit my 2001 Jeep XJ Sport? I'm looking at the 16" wheels and new tires as well.

Any assistance is appreciated! Super cool site here!!!

Latenight, I've been told they will not as they are 5x5 pattern. I really don't want to purchase them and they not fit.....that would really blow!

if they came from a TJ(99-06) they will fit, the JK(07+) wheels are 5 on 5 though!

Look's like a 3inch and 265/75R16's just an educated guess..

If those are the factory Rubicon tires, they are 245/75-16, which is approx. a 31"x9.5" tire.
