they will not fit. the hole is the middle is to small and will need to be made larger. Not to mention the offset is way wrong for a jeep.

Don,

I've seen a set on a flatfender (that were made to fit) and the jeep just didn't look right in any form nor fashion. For whatever reason, it reminded me of one of the rail maintenance pick-up trucks you see from time to time the railroad uses to run up and down the tracks; too narrow looking.

I had these on for a while until I could get the tires on the correct rims.

I had to cut the center hole to fit the lockouts and the rims sit to close to the frame, tires would rub the springs if turned to tight, It was a pain but I lived with it for a while. Wouldn't recommend them unless you get them with good rubber and switch them. I couldn't pass up 10 rims with good rubber and tubes for 50 bucks!

The railroad maintenance trucks that travel on the tracks are called Hi-Rails or High Rails. My son drives one.
