I found a set of factory Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 17 inch rims(this is how they are advertised) for sale and wanted to pick them up for a extra set in the future. The question is will they fit my 2006 Commander without any modification and will the tire pressure sensors work. Any help would be much appreciated.
Do you know what year Rubicon?
They will fit but I think you need to run spacers to clear the caliper I think 1/4" is the smallest spacer you can use. Someone confirm the spacer is needed other then that you will have no problems man.
Aren't the earlier rubi's 5x4.5 bolt pattern?
Thanks for the quick response. I am working on getting the year. The ad had limited info and a picture.
Not sure if the link worked. However this is the add. http://capecod.craigslist.org/pts/2528820248.html
Those look like mine, I have the Rubicon rims but you do have to run spacers to clear the brakes.
I've got a set of .25 inch spacers i'm not using if you need em. Just pay shipping.
Just saying, those look like the 2006 and before Rubicon rims. For those years the rims were 16 inches and would not clear the brakes. Make sure they are 2007 or newer and 17 inches
Listing title says 17 but it is always safe to double check.Quote:

If you have the funds I would just order the billet type and go with at least a 1" spacer the XK looks so much better with the wheels pushed out.
Good call I did not see that. They just look like the old ones. I wanted a set and went to look at JK Rubicon take-offs, they were regular TJ rims. Just passing on my sceptitismQuote:
