Jeep Wheels on a Satellite......LOOK

Post by BarryBum » Tue Apr 08, 2008 2:05 pm

I've always wondered what a set of Jeep Grizzly wheels would look like on an old Mopar? I've seen guys do the Mustang bullit wheels, but not many of our own stuff. So, I jacked up my Cherokee today with size 225/75/15 on Grizzly's and tried it. The back would be fine, about 3/4 inch of space between the tire and the spring. The front with the grease hub is gonna take some ingenuity. Any ideas?? Check the pics out.

Actually not too bad.

I'd think with a painted car it would look even better.

I like original wheels the best, but this isn't bad :o . They kind of reminds me of the torque thrust wheels that were on my car when I bought it.

I like the way it looks. Mopar and jeep go hand in hand. I put an e body 8.75 rear in my 89 sport Cherokee. It fits perfectly and is a ton stronger then the dana 35.
