Later JLs are 18" and provide a different set of looks if you want something different.

Thanks Bodgie. I will do my homework on JK and JL rims. I know this is an issue that has been covered many times in the forum, but there is so much to read on it (and I have), and so many comments, it is hard to be sure.

I thought I was limited to JK, so good to know. There are a cheap set of JK rims with 245/70/17's which seems to be rare. Good to get a feel for the diameter change. There are some nice looking JL rims out there though.

I think the JK runs a little more offset than the WG/WJ, so fitting JK runs widens the track a little. I think around 20mm (10mm a side) which is legal in most states.

They look way better than the rims that were on it.



I was thinking of going to a 265 for my next tyre. With the increased track of the JK rims, I am not sure if I will fit 265's and keep the tyre inside the guard. I don't want flares, so might be keeping the 245's. I need to get out there with a plumb bob, measure the space I have to the guard, then go looking for the Vic laws. I know they tyre needs to be inside the guard, just don't know which part of the guard they mean. Hopefully it is in-line with the axle.
