In the world of custom wheels, there is no shortage of choice. From classic steel wheels to modern alloys, there is a style for everyone. But with so many options on the market, it can be hard to know which ones will fit your Jeep.
That’s why 4WP has put together this quick guide on Jeep rim compatibility. Whether you’re looking to upgrade your tires or just want to know what sizes will fit, we’ve got you covered.
When it comes to rims, size and bolt pattern are the two most important factors. The size is the diameter of the wheel, and the bolt pattern is the number of lug holes and the distance between them.
Stock Jeep rims come in a variety of sizes, from 15 inches to 20 inches. The most popular size for Wranglers is 17 inches, but 18 and 20-inch rims are becoming more common.
As for bolt patterns, 5×5 is the most common size for Jeeps. Some older Jeeps like the TJ and YJ will have a 5×4.5 bolt pattern, but this is less common.
If you’re looking to upgrade your rims, the good news is that 4WP has a variety of aluminum and steel wheels from the best names in the industry including Pro Comp, KMC, American Racing, and more.
There are a few things to keep in mind when choosing the right tires for your Jeep. First, you’ll need to know the size of your rims. This will determine the width of the tire that you can choose. Second, you’ll need to decide on the style of tire that you want. All-terrain tires are a popular choice for Jeep owners, but there are also mud-terrain and highway tires available.
Once you’ve decided on the size and style of tire that you want, it’s time to choose a brand. There are many great tire brands on the market, but some of the most popular are BFGoodrich, Nitto, and Mickey Thompson.
No matter what Jeep Wrangler tire size you choose, 4WP has the perfect set for you. We also offer a variety of rims and wheels to complete the look.
What Wheels Fit Your Jeep?
With enough persistence, almost any wheel can be made to fit your Jeep. But for the best possible fitment, it’s important to choose rims that are specifically designed for your model.
For example, the JK and JL Wrangler is a popular choice for many off-roaders. To get the most out of its capability, correct fitment is a must. With a common 5×5 bolt pattern and a variety of offsets, there are plenty of rims on the market that will work on your trail-ready beast.
The Method Race Wheels 305 NV is one of the most popular in this category. And it’s easy to see why. The unique style and titanium/black finish make it a great choice for many Jeep owners. If you’re looking for something a little different, the 4 Wheel Parts Factory S-Series Wheel is also a great choice. It’s available in a high gloss black or smoke finish that is sure to grab everyone’s attention.
For those who own a YJ or TJ, a 5×4.5 bolt pattern rim is the way to go. These rims will fit your Jeep perfectly and give it the classic off-road look that many Jeep owners love.
The Pro Comp 69 Series Vintage is one of the most popular choices in this category. It’s available in a variety of sizes and offsets to fit your Jeep perfectly. And with a range of finishes including chrome, and black, you’re sure to find the perfect look for your classic YJ or TJ.
Want to take your rig to the next level? No problem! 4WP offers a variety of beadlock wheels including the Rock Monster D.O.T. Beadlock allowing you to air down your tires for even more traction on the trail.
Wheel Compatibility Explained
Now that you know the basics of rims and tires, it’s time to learn about wheel compatibility. When it comes to rims, size and bolt pattern are the two most important factors. The size is the diameter and width of the wheel while the bolt pattern is the number of lug holes and the distance between them.
Stock Jeep rims are anywhere from 15″ to 20″ and the most common bolt patterns are 5×5 and 5×4.5. But there are also many aftermarket rims available in a variety of sizes and bolt patterns.
When choosing rims for your Jeep, it’s important to make sure that they will fit. The best way to do this is to consult our bolt pattern guide or a rims compatibility chart like the one below. This will ensure that you choose rims that will fit your Jeep perfectly.

How To Pick The Best Jeep Wheels
Besides the guides and charts, looks also play an important, if not the most important role in deciding which rims to pick. You can find rims in a variety of colors and finishes including chrome, black, and even titanium.
When it comes to choosing the best rims for your Jeep, it’s important to consider both function and form. With so many great options, designs, and styles on the market, finding the perfect match has never been easier.
Smaller rims like the Pro Comp 29 Series La Paz and big, chunky tires will help you tackle the toughest trails. Or, if you’re looking to make an impact, choose rims like the 20″ FUEL Off-Road Cleaver D574 and Nitto Ridge Grappler All-Terrain tires.
No matter what style and look you’re going for, this guide should serve as the ultimate resource for picking the best rims for your Jeep. Shop 4WP and see what makes us one of the best in the business.
