What is the factory CJ back spacing?

My CJ Wheels look Like @$$ but there paid for. Sticking stock wheels for
another year makes my lift and re-gear cheaper. But it the back spacing is
over 4 I think I'll need the smaller back spacing.


any one know American racing steel wheel back spacing? it is not "advertised?
I imagine it is 3.5 as most of there truck and SUV wheels are in that ball park

Hi Greg,
For rim dimension definitions:
http://www.off-road.com/jeep/wheel.htm I like steel 10" X 15" on a 3
1/2" back spacing. The YJ and TJs come stock with 8" X 15" on a 5 1/2"
for their optional 30" tire.
God Bless America, ßill O|||||||O
