: After Market Wheels and Tires?

I know this is a "girl" question, but I need help! I bought the Patriot, because I love almost everything about it! It was also as close as I could get to a Commander without going officially broke. :) If I wanted my 4x2 to look more Commander-esque, what would you suggest I do? Should I buy somewhat larger tires and wheels?

Yes I would say that is a good start. Wheel size to look for is 5x4.5 Good Luck

If you've got $750 and want your Patriot to have an SUV feel and look you will need to buy a Rocky Road Outfitters lift kit. Theyre about $275 shipped to you and another $350-$500 installed depending where you live. I love what it did to my Patriot and I would recommend it for everyone! :D

I would say get the roof-rack wrap-around and some aftermarket fender flares with the faux-rivets like the Commander has... and eventually a headlight conversion; I think someone was working on that, actually. Personally; I'd try and get the nose to look more like a Wrangler; do a signal-lense conversion with the flares and bumper/grille.
