How to Read Wheel Offset & Measurements
Use these two references before ordering: the left diagram shows where each spec (PCD, center bore, offset, width and diameter) is measured on the wheel; the right diagram shows how positive, zero and negative offset shift the wheel face relative to the hub centerline.
Jeep Jeepster Commando Convertible OE Wheel Specs
The 1967 Jeep Jeepster Commando Convertible (SUV) uses a 5x139.7 bolt pattern with a 108mm center bore. Factory wheels are 15x6J at ET12.
Why the factory spec works for most owners:
- Supports the vehicle's curb weight and load capacity
- Preserves ground clearance for everyday and light off-road use
- Balances ride comfort with cargo and passenger stability
- Maintains clearance for the factory suspension travel and brake package
Flush Fitment
For a flush look with minimal rubbing, 15x7J ET0 is the recommended starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Jeep Jeepster Commando Convertible.
Maximum Aggressive Fitment
15x8J ET-12 is a more aggressive reference setup. Beyond this, expect rubbing under compression without fender rolling or camber correction.

Decision Guide
Offset & Backspacing Reference
Backspacing is calculated as wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance):
- OE: 15x6J ET12 → ~3.97″ backspacing
- Flush: 15x7J ET0 → ~4.0″ backspacing
- Max: 15x8J ET-12 → ~4.03″ backspacing
A Note on Clearance
Final clearance depends on the exact tire model, suspension height, brake package, alignment and vehicle tolerances. A physical test fit is recommended before production.
