Jeep Wheels

[reo-ron]

I want to run wheels on the trailer to match the TV. It's an '06 Wrangler. Any body know what bolt pattern the newer Jeeps are using?? It's not the old 5 1/2 BC that the CJ's used. It's smaller.

5x4.5 - just went out and measured mine!

For any Jeep TJ/LJ it's 5 on 4.5. ('97 thru '06 wranglers)

Ahh... sneaky. You got a lot more going on than your personal album indicates.

Please do reveal some for us fellow Jeepers. We'd love to see what you're doing over there. .... .... Oh. Oh yeah, and the rest of the folks would like to see too.

Thanks for the help!! I've already got trailers with 4 1/2 BC wheels and lots more wheels in the shed . Sooo -that problem is solved. I'm not a jeeper but a friend who borrows my teardrop wants meet to help build a trailer for her to pull that matches her jeep and has the same tire and wheel combo . That way she only needs her Jeep spare and not a trailer spare. I'm a hot rodder not an off-roader My trailers have vintage wheels that are 4-5 inches wide. Her's will have 33X12.5 15's on the trailer as well as the Jeep.

Wah? Huh? I repeat... We demand on this forum of all Jeep Chicks and their rigs!

(Well, that's slightly different than how I requested it before)

Disclaimer: The term "Jeep Chicks" is widely used and is said only in the highest order of a compliment to women and their contribution in our universities of higher learning.

Measure your hub before you spend a lot of money on the wheels. I found some rims for a decent price off a Sebring, the bolt pattern matched the hub, but the center hole in the rim was too small. The wheels on my '05 Wrangler look like they have a small hole in the center as well.

"Big" Guy (Teardrops for Vets) wanted Toyota rims on his trailer (to match his car). The trailer axle hub was too big for the hole in the rim so we removed the tire, put it on my milling machine, indicated it in to .001, and bored it out so that the rim would slip over the hub. Worked fine. But, as the trailer axle hub was deeper than the Toyota hub we couldn't fit the hubcap on.

Any machine shop could do this for you I'd expect it would take a couple of hours max and shop rates run maybe $100/hour.

Cheers,

Gus

Good idea, but I wouldn't want to do this to my TV spare
