Yup. I have a 97 Wrangler, and I switch my wheels for the winter. Would you believe how much a replacement is on the factory Jeep 5 spoke, similar to a Torq Thrust, goes for?? Salt is brutal on clear coated rims. I had an extra set of Dip cop car wheels in the garage, had 'em powdercoated green to 'kinda' match my Jeep, and they went on like they were made for it. The offset is a LITTLE different, it just puts em out a little farther but still well under the stock wheel flares.

Why not get a set of the American Racing AR767 circle-track wheels? They have those in 15's as well as 16's. I was going to order a set of the 16x8s for my '70 Challenger, but I found another set of 16" wheels to use.

I was looking around on eBay for some cheap wheels (was hoping to find some Keystone Klassics, no dice) for my Swinger and came across these AMC wheels. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... gory=43954

Did some research on them today and they should fit on our cars (LBP cars only). These are 14x7 rims with a 5x4.5 bolt spacing and a 4 inch backspace. Didn't get any info on how big the centering hole is, but it looks about the same size as most mopar wheels. Looks like you could modify some rally center caps to fit where the American Motors ones were.

Hmm, anybody got a spare AMX around?
