18x8 fit my gen3?

Postby chubbs » Mon Nov 19, 2012 6:28 am

Hey guys, I'm looking at getting some rims for my gen3 liberty heritage. Would 18x8 fit with Pedders lowered spring? Or will I need to roll my guards? And what would be the best tyre? I don't want it to lift my car coz I'm happy with how low it sits

Yes, possible scrub if that low. It will not be as low once you put 18's on. You'll then want to lower more, meaning rolling guards and possible camber adjustment. A less wide tyre will help also.
Best advice is jut buy them and go from there.

Whats the wheels offset? That has a big bearing on fitment.
