TJ Canyon wheels

[macgyvr]

I may have found a smokin deal on a set of TJ canyon wheels. I am told that these are 15x8? anyone know if that is true? anyone know how much backspacing they have? These would be going on my Daily Driver 96 XJ with my street tires (31x10.5x15).

mac"nutty guy that chops frames apart" gyvr,
If they are truly TJ Canyons and not the ZJ lookalike, they are 15x8. With 31x10.50s you should need about 3-3.5" of lift to not rub on the LCAs or fenders, although I'm not sure what backspacing they have. I just know at 2.5" on my 99 XJ, Canyons and 31"s rubbed at full lock. Hope this helps.

My "baby" jeep is currently running 31x10.5x15 ats (my street tires) on 15x8 with 4in back spacing on el cheapo race car shop rims. The dang tires wont balance with the race car rims (you can actually see where they welded these rims together). I've got 3.5 to 4 inches of lift. I know a guy that is selling the original canyon wheels off his TJ. He sez that they are 15x8 but doesn't know for sure. I recently picked up some 31 tsl's for wheelin tires (because having two jeeps to wheel is better than one) to put on the el cheapo racecar rims. I'm hoping the canyon wheels with the At's will work good for the street, that's why I was curious if anyone knows the backspacing. IIRC some of the TJs came with 31s and the cayon wheels from the factory didn't they? (ok ok if they didn't let not argue about that, I'm an XJ guy...but have wrenched on waaaaaaaaay to many TJs)
