It varies by trim and wheel size, 3 factory fitments exist, from 265/60R18 up. Check the placard on the driver's door jamb for the size your specific vehicle left the factory with. ### What is the bolt pattern on a Jeep Grand Cherokee? 5x127mm (5x5 in). That is the figure you need when shopping for aftermarket wheels; centre bore and offset still have to match separately. ### What should the tire pressure be on a Jeep Grand Cherokee? 35 PSI front and rear, measured cold. The number moulded into the tire sidewall is the tire's maximum, not the vehicle's recommendation. Do not inflate to it. ### What is the lug nut torque for a Jeep Grand Cherokee? 130 lb-ft, tightened in a star pattern with a torque wrench. Impact guns routinely overshoot this by 100 lb-ft or more, which warps rotors and stretches studs. ### Does the Jeep Grand Cherokee come with a spare tire? Tire inflator/repair kit on most trims; compact spare on some. Confirm by trim. ## Sources - [Jeep Garage forum, "WL V8 no longer an option in 2 Row Grand Cherokee"](https://www.jeepgarage.org/threads/wl-v8-no-longer-an-option-in-2-row-grand-cherokee.241866/) - [Autoevolution, "2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee Drops 5.7L HEMI V8, Grand Cherokee L Still Has It"](https://www.autoevolution.com/news/2023-jeep-grand-cherokee-drops-57l-hemi-v8-grand-cherokee-l-still-has-it-207348.html) - [Car and Driver, 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe Hybrid specs](https://www.caranddriver.com/jeep/grand-cherokee-4xe-2022) - [NHTSA press release, Jeep Wrangler/Grand Cherokee 4xe high-voltage battery "park outside" recall](https://www.nhtsa.gov/press-releases/park-outside-recall-jeep-wrangler-phev) - [NHTSA recall 23V-352, steering intermediate shaft](https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2023/RCLRPT-23V352-5968.PDF) - [NHTSA recall 23V-413, rear coil spring detachment](https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2023/RCLRPT-23V413-6565.PDF) - [Jeep Garage forum, WL ESS (Stop/Start) auxiliary battery location thread](https://www.jeepgarage.org/threads/grand-cherokee-wl-ess-stop-start-system-battery-location.245932/) - [Cabral CDJR, How to Change the Battery on a Jeep Grand Cherokee (2025 model, under passenger/driver seat)](https://www.cabralchryslerjeepdodge.com/blog/how-to-change-the-battery-on-a-jeep-grand-cherokee) - [Fontana CDJR, Jeep Grand Cherokee Oil Type & Capacity Guide (2011-2026)](https://www.fontanacdjr.com/service-department/service-and-parts-tips/jeep-grand-cherokee-oil-type/) - [Reddit r/GrandCherokee, 2025 GC losing 5.7/3.6, 4-cyl turbo/4xe only discussion](https://www.reddit.com/r/GrandCherokee/comments/1cexvv9/2025_gc_losing_57_36_engines/) ## Find your exact Grand Cherokee - [2025](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/2025) - [2024](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/2024) - [2023](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/2023) - [2022](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/2022) - [2021](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/2021) - [2020](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/2020) - [2019](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/2019) - [2018](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/2018) - [2017](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/2017) - [2016](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/2016) - [2015](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/2015) - [2014](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/2014) - [2013](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/2013) - [2012](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/2012) More Jeep Grand Cherokee guides: - [Oil & filter](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/oil) - [Battery](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/battery) - [Wiper blades](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/wipers) - [Air & cabin filters](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/filters) - [Brakes](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/brakes) - [Fluids](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/fluids) - [Service schedule](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/service-schedule) - [Problems & reliability](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/common-problems) - [Oil light reset](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/oil-reset) - [Key fob battery](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/key-fob-battery) - [Specs](https://whichcarparts.com/cars/jeep/grand-cherokee/specs) Specifications vary with engine option, production date, and market.
