Re: A question about rim size...
Most rims have the size stamped into the back side.

Re: A question about rim size...
Thank you for the replies so far....I`m going to get one of those 48"
Farmers Jack`s
At this point I just want a spare tire... as long it is the same height as
the other 3 tires I don`t care if it is skinnier. I`m only going to drive 10
miles or so until I get the original 35" tire fixed. I`m looking for a $50
steel rim and a $100 tire. I`m probably not the sharpest crayon in the box
when it comes to tires+rim sizes..... could someone suggest a rim and a
tire....please.
Thanks

Re: A question about rim size...
Those 'farmers jacks' are more properly called 'widow makers' and have
no business anywhere near a Jeep in my opinion!
I carry a hand cable winch called a come-a-long,
http://www.cvfsupplycompany.com/hanpowpulcom.html
And I have a small floor jack that tucks tight behind the passenger seat
for changing tires. I only need to jack it 2" to change a tire. I use
the axles.....

Re: A question about rim size...
Those 'farmers jacks' are more properly called 'widow makers' and have
no business anywhere near a Jeep in my opinion!
I carry a hand cable winch called a come-a-long,

And I have a small floor jack that tucks tight behind the passenger seat
for changing tires. I only need to jack it 2" to change a tire. I use
the axles.....
