Those rims were on 02' to I believe 04' or possibly later jeep grand cherokees.
And are 5x5" bolt pattern, not 5x4.5" like the Eagles.

I abused my first '84 Eagle wagon pretty bad. It had the Mexican 282 in it. PO swapped it in from his CJ because "it was gutless and backfired a lot" Turned out to have 2 bad pushrods and cam walk (used a 4.0L timing cover and cam button) and I fixed the valve cover leak at the same time. I killed the 998 trans several times (snapped the neck off the torque converter) hauling my trailer made from a '91 IH bus body and a tandem axle trailer (loaded to go to and from swap meets)

AMC/Jeep gauges are for amusement only. Any correlation between them and reality is purely coincidental!
