I bought a used YJ that came with 16 inch aluminum rims. They look great but I don't have a spare rim, the guy I bought it from didn't have it. I don't feel like spending a couple hundred dollars on a matching custom rim for a spare - but I can't seem to find a 5x4.5 bolt pattern cheapo rim.
I am new to the Jeep world so any advice or where to get a cheap one would be great, the dealer was no help. Thanks.

Picture of the rims you've got now? There's a few steel wheels that fit the "cheap but good" criteria

Hey LM - Thanks. I will take it. I dont really care if it does not match so this will be perfect. I live in NJ.

It may be cheaper to find a used trailer rim, 4.5 on 5 x 15" and get a tire the same height as you drive on.

Looks like that's what I will end up doing. I guess I have to check my tire shop to find out what will come close to the tires that are on there now(265/75R/16) with sizing the rim down to 15.
