I made this thread awhile back. It's got a lot of different Jeep Wheels photoshopped on my car.

http://forums.amceaglenest.com/index.php?topic=37511.0

Also here is a thread from the Cherokee forum with all the wheel designs throughout the years.

The third pic in my wheel option thread aren't factory Eagle wheels. They are older cherokee wheels I believe.

Well its almost back on the road!!  All I need is 2 more tires for the front and figure out why it doesn't want to stop. Its got a real spongey pedel, should I bleed them or?

Oh I pulled the flairs off to! I like the way it looks just needs bigger tires! And a lil trim job on the front fenders. There is hardly any rust in the rockers, just a lil on the driver side right at the front, and on the passenger side about half of the door length where its startin, so to to bad! And I was able to leave the chrome on it, but haven't decided if I like it with or without chrome.

as far as wheels go you have a few choices .... cherokee wheels are a direct fit, ford wheels will fit as well but you may have to open up the hub opening (I had to with the ranger wheels I use as "movers" for my wagon and now for my kammback), I have heard and i think i saw a few pictures of mercedes benz wheels swapping over to an eagle, and of course AMC 5 lug wheels fits nicely.  a 14 inch rim will fit the car for sure cause I run a set of American racing wheels on my wagon

Well my dad gave me a 304 for my hornet and I was gunna use the 4.0 I got for the eagle. BUT I want to eventually build a turbo 4.6 stroker for the hornet so my cousin says, why not put the 304 in the eagle and build the 4.0 for the hornet and get it ready to get turbod. Sooooo my question is, how much work will need to be done to put the 304 in the eagle?!?

Contact hypereagle, he sells the mounts to do it right. Fab work is required, not just a bolt in swap, from what I hear.
