Wheel Questions
I have a question. I probably should have posted before I ordered them lol but here it goes
I ordered the Crager Soft 8 16 x 8
Specs:
Part Number: CRR-3977850P
Rim Diameter (in): 16 in.
Rim Width (in): 8.00 in.
Backspacing (in): 5.000 in.
Offset (mm): +12.00mm
I am running 265/75/16's ..........
With these wheels will I be ok on turns and flex, with the new backspacing?
Thanks
Derek

I think you're going to find that they hit the front calipers. I hope not, but I think they will. Some seem to be different. From everything I have read, I think the Soft 8 has some sort of lip on the back side of each hole and that is what hits the caliper. The -19mm offset from the looks of it, will probably fit. Yours may fit, then again, who knows? Keep us posted. I hope it works for you.

Did you notice I said 16s and not 15s?
I dont see why the 16s wouldnt work since thats what came on the jeep
I could be wrong though, but I hope not.
Best,
Derek
