You'd need to do some serious modification to make a 2014 Trailhawk. From what I recall, they cut the fenders to make those 35" tires fit. They obviously modified the suspension system, too. So in short.....it's doable...but not without some pretty major modification.
You should be able to fit 33" tires without much trouble from what I understand. Maybe a 2" lift if anything.
Where would I find these replica wheels. Specifically the Viper ones. I have the 20" OEM SRT's, but I like the look of the vipers better. Also, anyone who is running Nitto 420s, how do you like them? They seem to be the only semi-decent priced tire available in the staggered size for the SRT's
Also, would it be better to run the replica SRT's than the OEM?
Paid $1780 for everything shipped. Tires, wheels, tpms sensors, lugs and locking lugs and center caps.
Gonna keep the stock wheels and tires for winter.
I wanted to keep the entire wheel circumference as close to the same for the front and back, just because of the full-time 4WD. Don't really want any t-case issues down the road.
I posted this thread in the general WK2 section, but I figure I would post it here too to see if I get any bites.
Let me know what you guys think?
Haven't seen anyone with them on their wk2, so I might as well get it going. They still are a 5x5 bolt pattern off of a 2013. The seller says that it is stock backspacing and offset so they will fit.
Anyone know of these on a WK2?
Oh yea, and they are dipped in black already, so I have that going for me!

I received my 2014,grand cherokee limited in April this year - 265/60/18. I live in Ottawa and looking for snow tires and rims other than apt the plain steel black - similar the what came on it. Any recommendations on size and make and also where I can purchase decent rims ? Many thanks - Jim from Ottawa Canada
best bet for oems is ebay, here or craigslist, I've just found a couple of days ago your wheels on craigslist that were take offs, good deals on ebay too permachrome has 18" for $80 each, five spokes wheels, 18" similar to yours but from 13 jeeps can be found for about $125 each.
If you have a v8 with hd breaks you have to keep it 18" otherwise 17" are best!
btw, I'm in need for TPMS, anyone has any recommendation on ebay seller, lots of them around there selling 56029398AB for about $50 for a set of 4.
Cleared the brake calipers perfectly but I am concerned that there is a little more offset than standard - the rims protrude past the fender flare about 1". Tires would be 265/65/17.
Would this be an issue/ problem ? Still. Have to check that the TPM fit as well but all looks promising...
You should be fine might have a tiny bit of rubbing. The 265/65/17 fit fine with stock wheels. Have them mount one tire on one wheel and fit it and try the steering out before you commit to the purchase. Thats what town fair tire and big o tires does.
Thank you. I forgot to mention that it is the GC Overland. Doesn't seem to be any rubbing issues when we checked so looks fine there. The standard 20" rims (bought demo so didn't have a choice) and tires are a serious limitation to me.
Thanks for the late response Jeff lol. I know, when I go to my 275 front and 315 rear I will be running 275-40-20 front and 315-35-20 rear. Still trying to decide which tires to go with. I'm leaning towards the Delinte D8's.
