15x8 on JKU
 

Hey guys, I'm getting my new JKU rubicon in a week and I want to know if I can fit my old Pro comp 7069 15x8 wheels on 31" tires
Did anyone use this set up?

Thank you for your help...

Dude welcome, your first post, your going to love the Jeep and a Rubi at that, I love my
15's, make sure your 5x5 bolt patern I don't know what your taking them off of so that had to be said, mine are MB72's from Discount tire in Detroit and have no fitment issues, -19 backspacing or 3.5 inches most alloy rims should fit,I guess you'll no when you put them on, 31's? got to go at least 33, I think the Rubi comes with 32's dosn't it.good luck anyway.

Thank you for your advise BIGCHRIS........ I think I have a problem.
You see the rims are from my old ZJ and they are 5x4.5 bolt patern with 3.75 backspace
My 31s are winter tires and brand new so I was thinking to use them
Is there any chance I can use them on my new JKU Rubicon?

well you could run a set of 5on5 to 5on4.5 spacers I guess, I used then on the stock 16s when I first went to 33's, use a good brand like spidertrax and you should not have any problems but they may stick out to much though, may be better off selling what you have and get what you need.

Heard on another forum, some 15's have problems clearing the calipers of new JK's depending on the
backspacing. Just a heads up.
