The p.o. of my Jeep must have messed up one of his wheels,

It’s riding on 3 are American Racing (discontinued , can’t find it) 15x8, one stock steel 15x7 spare.

I’m thinking I need new wheels, there’s a set of 5 wheels, no tires for $100 on Facebook, won’t go lower on price. Is that an okay price for these? I need new tires anyway.

Yep - same as mine.

I picked them up. Hopefully I didn’t pay too much for the 5 wheels ($100). A couple look a little corroded on the back, so probably gonna try to scuff away the oxidation.

Hope the Ecco’s work with the spare tire carrier on 31s.

I put the stock 15 Steel with 31 on the spare to see the fit and it fits. (Although, it’s not touching the bumper. Not sure if it’s supposed to touch or not.)

@John Cooper Alabama aint that close to Tampa FL! But thanks for the offer brother! besides I already bought from the FB guy.

Now it's looking for used 31s at my local mom/pop shop. (which the guy said were unicorns/ they would have to order them.) But if I buy new, might as well buy from a big chain right? If I move out of state I can still use the warranty.

Tampa to Chattanooga 6hr drive running 70-75. Done it a few time in a big rig.

I understand though, heck gas would cost you more than $100.00.

They do. Here's what I did though:

I added these nuts and lock washers so that I could cinch the lug nuts down all the way and not have excessive pressure on things - this way it "seems to be" about the same tension as stock.

There's barely enough thread showing to get the lug nuts started, but it *does* work and once started, you can cinch the nuts down to 95 ft-lbs and that spare ain't going nowhere!

The 31" tire just BARELY fits under the CHMSL, I spaced it up with a couple of thick washers so there'd be room for a spare tire cover to fit.
