Does the Jeep Patriot have 5 lugs. Hubby says 5 like all the other Jeeps.
Just wondering cause I want to steal the rims off his pickup and put his orignials back on his!! If not he gets to keep his pretty rims!!!

you'll need to compare offset and lugnut patern to ensure they will fit the new jeep properly.

If jeep is 5 and the truck is 6, we can't swap. Which is fine!! I just don't get new shinny rims haha!!! Hubby says no more buying rims!! I'm just curious!!

yup, that makes a difference too haha... Some wheel dealers take wheel trade-ins... maybe you could get a good deal on wheels for the jeep that way?

One thing we didn't do cause hubby said no was the 17 tire. I wanted the 17 tire but he ranted about that kept saying Remember the Nissan. Our Nissan
4x4 we have has them and it's hard to find a good tire. The tire place we go to only had/have Toyo 4 ply. Not exactly a good ply tire for driving out in the mountains and being a little stupid during hunting season. Last year, flat tire, had tires 2 weeks, rock went into the tire. I told them to give me different tires. Was told they only had the Toyo. I haven't done it but there are a few other tire places around and going to call and check on the 17's, brand names, and they ply. I don't know about 16's. I'll be checking those out once I get my Patriot. I never thought about wheel trade-in. Have to check around.
