2021 4xe Sahara
This might be a dumb question, but I just got a 2021 4xe and I'm getting ready to sell my 2020 2 door Willy's. Love the 17" rims on the Willy's and not a huge fan of the 20" rims and highway tires on the 4xe, so I'm thinking about swapping them out. Tire sizes are 255/75/R17 on the Willy's and 275/55/R20 on the 4xe.

1) Looks like both sets are 32", so the speedometer shouldn't need recalibrating, right?
2) If I swap them out, will the TPMS automatically sync with the other car?

I just did something similar with my Ram 1500 and had to take truck to Discount Tire for them to reprogram the tpms where they did it for free. Again not same car, but same brand. Let us know what happens.

2016 Willys JKU, 2021 4XE
Ah Im in almost the same boat. I have a 2016 willys with the blacked out rims. If the JK and the JL rims were the same specs I'd be very tempted to keep the JK rims over the 4xe. I put factory sized Duratracs on them and they still have atleast half the life on them even at 40k miles!

You can put JK wheels on a JL. Just make sure you use JL lug nuts with them.
