20" Jeep SRT Wheels Installed


Classy

Recommended Posts

Searched high and low to get this figured out as I am sure many have. Here is what we installed on our DJ:

Front 20x9 (+35mm offset) 255/45 20

Rear 20x10 (+50 offest with a 6mm spacer) 285/40 20

We had to use a 6MM spacer to get the clearance in the rear. It does not rub UNLESS you are getting a lot of articulation out of the suspension (pulling in sideways on a steep driveway - the angle of my driveway in the pic is not enough to do it).

We found these wheels for sale in the local classifieds off a 2008 Jeep SRT 8.

Thanks everyone! Its an awd drive why not go wide in the rear just like the SRT 8??

Bit of an update for everyone. We had out first full size passangers sit in the back the other day and noticed that there was some more rubbing on the strut cup I guess you could call it. The tire clears fine but as the suspension is compressed and the top part of the wheel cambers up and in towards the body it contacts the strut cup. I am trying to source some 9mm spacers with hubcentric lips to see if the extra 3mm will give us a zero rub condition.

I am really loving the look and now that they are on I do not want to have to get something else!!

I have put the larger spacer on and it did not seem to rub coming into work this morning however it was only me in there so I need to get some weight in the back and test again. There seems to be room on the outter wheel well lip even with the wider spacer. Will report back once I get some more ballest in there and find a bump to get full compression (or close to it)

Well time for an update. Tried to see what I could do to make the 10s work in the back but there was just no way to do it and not have it rub when we have passangers in the back. We have since sold this set and ordered at 20x9 35mm for all 4 corners. We orders the same set up they are going to be gloss black SRT reps. I was really hoping to keep the 10s as it made it look like one mean journey but it was just not funtional.

20x9's look great. I just put 20x9" SRT 8 Viper Wheels on my Journey and it looks mean. No rubbing.
