Re: will 18x9 wheels fit my cherokee? also an a/c Question?
Yes, it's a completely free country. You don't need my approval to go ahead.
But the same freedom that lets you put 18" rims on an offroad vehicle lets
me wonder why. Freddom is a two way street my friend, never forget it.
As for touching the suspension at full lock, there is an adjustment for
that. You may not need those spacers. turn the wheel to full lock, then look
where the rub is, typically at the back. If the rub is at the back of the
left tire, for instance, go to the right side tire and look at the steering
knuckle/lower control arm. There is a Stop Bolt that has no other job but to
stop the steering before the parts rub. You can adjust this bolt so the
steering stops before the tires rub. On my CJ, I loosen the lock nut and
give the bolt a few twists out so it strikes sooner, but on a TJ, the bolt
is removed and washers are placed behind it and then it is put back in. I am
not sure how the Cherokee accomplishes the adjustment.
And, beerman is a spoof so the spammers can't find me, I go by CRWLR when
posting and Jeeping.
As you can see, while I _think_ what you are trying to do is silly, I'm
still offering advice to help you with the hurdles, so I am not being
judgemental at all. Just because I would never in a million years do what
you are doing doesn't mean that I am right, or even that I would impose my
sense of what's right on you.
If you ever think that offroading might possibly be in your future, that
tire and wheel combination will cause you serious problems. That is not my
opinion, it is fact. Be sure to carry a spare, or four.

The "God will smite you dead" thing was an attempt at humor in the hopes of
getting you to change your mind about what youare about to do. It is Jeeping
blasphemy to put 18" rims on an offroad vehicle. Surely you can appreciate
the notion that the Jeep god will not be pleased ...

As you can see, while I _think_ what you are trying to do is silly, I'm
still offering advice to help you with the hurdles,
( I DO APPRECIATE THE ADVICE )
so I am not being judgemental at all. Just because I would never in a
million years do what you are doing doesn't mean that I am right, or
even that I would impose my sense of what's right on you.
If you ever think that offroading might possibly be in your future, that
tire and wheel combination will cause you serious problems. That is not
my opinion, it is fact. Be sure to carry a spare, or four.
"and then you say"

of getting you to change your mind about what youare about to do. It is
Jeeping blasphemy to put 18" rims on an offroad vehicle. Surely you can
appreciate the notion that the Jeep god will not be pleased ...
so you contradict yourself first saying your not trying to impose your
opinion and then you admit to trying to change my mind?
your comments are very judgemental.
talk about "blasphemy" look at what your saying, thats real blasphemy,
joke or not.
as a matter "fact" here's one for you.
something like 90% of all s.u.v's are never used for any type of
off-roading.
im not trying to argue with you crwlr, i agree freedom is a two-way
street, so your entitled to your opinion. all i'm saying is when i ask
for help i'm not looking for your opinion included.
my mother alway's told me "if you don't have anything nice to say don't
say anything at all"
