Rubicon Wheels Tires on a Sahara 4xe

[AVGeek99]

My wife has a Sahara 4xe with the stock wheels/tires. To date it has been her pavement princess and she didn't even like taking it on gravel roads. Today we went to 4Fest in MN and she discovered how fun off roading can be. Now she wants to go hit some trails but I'm a little weary of the highway tires that come stock on a Sahara 4xe

I have a '21 JLUR on order. I'm having the dealer put on rims and 35s. I'm assuming my stock Rubi wheels with 33s will fit her Sahara 4xe. I'm familiar with the specs of the stock Rubi rims 17x7.5 ET44 with 6" of backspacing. I know the wheels on her 4xe are 20x8, but I'm not sure of the offset and backspacing.

I'm wondering what her 4xe would look like with my stock Rubi wheels/tires. Has anyone tried putting stock Rubi wheels/tires on a Sport or Sahara?

Hi,
Just did that today to my stock Sahara (wheels and tires were purchased as takeoffs from members here at the forum). Nothing else added. BTW, this is not the 4xe.
I really like the look!

Here’s my Sahara 4xe with standard rubicon wheels, everything else is stock. I just changed the wheels tonight to the Rubicon 4xe wheels, but won’t have pics until tomorrow morning.

Swapping base parts for Rubi takeoffs is commonplace. Go for it, make it yours!

Cool, you even have the Wildpeak MTs, which is what I originally ordered mine with. Fits the Sahara very well!! Thank you!!

Hello…..love the look of your Sahara…..I have one ordered right now, same color, and anxiously waiting delivery. Ordered mine with All Season tires since I don’t need the Cold Weather package here on FL. I plan to get the same tire and wheel set up you have. Just wondering now that you have a few miles on them how they ride on the highway. My wife wife and I will be using this as a daily driver and on the beach……appreciate your feedback. Thanks.

Hi, they have run great! I had heard that this brand and model of tire would feel the same as the stock tires, and so far, that has been spot on. Ridewise, they feel as good as the original tires. I find myself smiling everytime I see them on my Jeep! Highly recommended!

Looks fabulous.
Did you have to do anything with the TPMS?
