I have pretty much narrowed my "Next Car" to a Cherokee. Does everything I need, great reputation for longevity, yadayadayada. Since I can't leave anything alone, what wheels will fit? Ford/ Mustang, right? Local Mustang kids seem like they change wheels as often as underwear, so deals are out there. Thanks, guys. Chuck

IYeah, Churkeys are 5x114.3 Being a taller truck, damn near anything will fit. Just make sure you don't run a super high offset and you should be fine.

S197 (05 and up) wheels are the ones with the high offsets.

SN95 are usually around 20 offset if I remember correctly.

Also make sure they will work with your cherokee center bore before you start buying wheels.

Dont forget Ranger/Explorer wheels. Again, I think the newer models run a high offset. Friend of mine put newer explorer wheels on his old ranger, with the high offset it looks stupid.

"Churkeys"? What is a Churkey?

Churkey = Cherokee.

I'm afraid that particular piece of lingo may be my fault.

I tend to call mine the "Herp Churkey," and mndsm and i have talked about "Churkeys" quite a few times.

OK. Weird thing is that my family nick name growing up was Chirkey, awfully close. That's Missouri slang for full of life. So if I get the Cherokee, it could be Chirkey's Churkey. No, bad idea.

I could offer a bite of Chirkey, but that would end badly for all concerned.
