Jeep Wrangler tire sizes: common questions
What size tires does a Jeep Wrangler take?
- It varies by trim and wheel size, 5 factory fitments exist, from 245/75R17 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 Wrangler?
- 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 Wrangler?
- 37 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 Wrangler?
- 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 Wrangler come with a spare tire?
- Full-size matching spare mounted on the rear swing-gate (matches the largest fitment on the vehicle).
