Personally I'd do it right and find the proper year bracket. At least compare them and see what's different.

Wanting to change wheels and go with 17s, is 17x8 too narrow? Ride quality? Anybody using this size 4.5 backspacing.

Used to run 35's and 37's on my XJ's on 15x8's...

I think a 17x10 would work better for you, or even x9.

Thanks for posting Matt , Those are the only pics I had. Trucks over at PSE getting some goodies added. I'll get some better pics soon. Tire and wheel combo felt so much better.

Ride quality was rough, not enough tire with 20s. I want it even better, now I'm upgrading
coil springs and shocks.
