    That's a good question and one I hope to have answered this week. If I could guess, it's probably a 5x4.5.

    Size sure, 16" or 17". Bolt pattern I would agree with Eddie and say 5x4.5 which is what the TJ's rand and a lot of other compact trucks.

    I wonder what the Renegade would look like with trimmed fenders in the front and a comp cut in the back. Probably get 31" tires then. lol

    I'd like to see one photoshopped with desert race truck fenders (bubbled out a bit like a Raptor).

    I can't wait for EJS next year to see what they do with the new platform. I loved the grand Cherokee with the 35s! It's going to be interesting to see what they do once this has been released and they have to get people's attention again

    I got a chance to talk to one of the senior engineers I know on Tuesday and can tell you that they're working on it.... not sure what they will do or if they can do but, they are wanting to do something for sure.

    Sounds promising, but of course when you have an unlimited budget like there's anything is possible right?

    Did you find out at SEMA if it comes with a full size spare?

    With tiny tires like it has, oh yeah, it'll have a full size spare and one that is stored under the deck of the rear cargo area. The problem will be if you run larger tires - I don't think you'll be able to carry anything bigger back there.

    I wonder if you could carry a bigger but under-inflated spare. I know there is an obvious limit, but maybe you could get the extra inch of room by keeping the spare with just enough air to keep the bead seated. It probably doesn't matter anyway because a new bumper/carrier combo would be the better way to go.

    I popped open the floor hatch and it did look roomy. There was also extra crap like a storage tray in there that might be removable to give you more room. With any luck, I'm hoping to run a 30" or even 31" tire and if needed, I'm not opposed to carrying a spare on a roof rack - "overland" style - LOL

    The perfect scenario would be a bolt pattern and enough room to trim wheel wells to accept Rubi Take-offs ;)

    i call bs on this. every single post about 235/60r17 have required pinch weld trimming and spacers to clear the spring perch, unless running offset rims which usually still requires trimming
