Upgrading to Dana 60s on my 2021 JLU Willys and wanted to see if anyone can recommend some wheels.

Mainly looking for 17s as I already have some 38x12.50r17 nittos.

Should be 8x6.5 bolt pattern and then just find whatever wheels you want.

You are going to have to do some homework. What is the bore center of the new axles? How wide do they measure WMS to WMS (wheel mounting surface)? Do you want the tires to stick out more than they do with your current setup? What is the offset of your current wheels? Also, while I agree with @Jerrybizzle that the lug pattern should be 8x6.5 it is possible that you are getting Superduty axles with a metric bolt pattern, so confirm that too.

I'm often occupied, by many things, often at the same time
I'd get some 15" white wagon wheels. That'd look saweet.

Thanks for the input. I'll need to check with my jeep shop who ordered the 60's and see what is up and then find my wheels from there. I know they'll need to be able to have the right space for the bore. Thanks again.

You are having 60s installed and don't know what wheels to put on? Just wake up today and decide this is how your day is going? Lol

Says the guy who can't figure out which fuse protects the running lights...
Gee, you creep my profile because of a tongue in cheek comment? Not creepy at all. Lol.

And if you continue reading, you'll notice that there is more than just a fuse protecting the exterior lights. Oh and that it has never been mentioned on the forum. Until I figured it out.
But hey, keep creeping. I feel like you're sitting there putting lipstick on and adding me to your "list"

*Edit: I just realise how fitting your handle is! My apologies. It's just your thing apparently.

Just sayin' sometimes stuff is trickier than it seems. Cut the guy some slack.

BTW, you left your back door unlocked :devil:

Again, it was a tongue in cheek comment, hence the "lol"

As for the back door, I assume you mean the Google search I posted? Fill your boots my friend.
