Difference in brakers Rubicon vs Sahara or X
With a 2010 Rubicon, are my brakes any different than those of a Sahara or X Wrangler? I'm wondering if we have physically larger brakes as I am about to purchase a set of 16" wheels to use on my 2010 Rubicon for some great winter tires that I have left over and can use. There LT245/75R16 mud-snows with steel studs. Great for ice and hard packed snow here in PA.

16" wheels on 2010 Rubicon
Just bought 5 used 16" 2009 Wrangler X wheels with TPMS for $150. Got them home, jacked up the 2010 Rubicon, took off LF 17" wheel and viola, the 16" wheel fit great. No fittment problem with brakes. Now I can move my 16" M+S studded tires over to the newer rims and be ready for next winter.
