Jeep Patriot/Compass Wheels
« on: August 18, 2012, 04:46:32 PM »
Just a FYI, while the bolt pattern of a Jeep Patriot/Compass wheel is the same (I know the 5.5 inch back spacing is a little deep), the center of the wheel will not fit over the hub on the Eagle. Would take a lot of grinding IMO to get it on there.

I had to try.

Some spacers would take care of that.

Was hoping for a direct fit because of the 5.5" back spacing..wanted to see what that would look like in fit.
