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.
ANKUSI Engineering Expert Advice
SUVs carry more curb weight higher off the ground, so wheel strength and rotational mass both matter more than on a comparable sedan — a heavier wheel amplifies body roll and slows steering response exactly where the platform is already working hardest. Forging keeps the wheel light without giving up the load rating the factory suspension geometry was tuned around.
The Jeep Wagoneer Limited runs a 6x139.7 bolt pattern, 89.1mm center bore, and a 15x7J at ET12, front and rear, wheel from the factory. Our Flush Fitment reference is 15x8J ET-12, which tucks the tire under the fender lip on a stock-height Jeep Wagoneer Limited. Our Maximum Aggressive reference is 15x10J ET-25 — beyond that offset, expect rubbing against the inner fender liner under compression without further trimming.
Jeep Wagoneer Limited OE Wheel Specs
The 1978 Jeep Wagoneer Limited (SUV) uses a 6x139.7 bolt pattern with a 89.1mm center bore. Factory wheels are 15x7J 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
ANKUSI builds these wheels — we are the forging factory, not a reseller. For the Jeep Wagoneer Limited (1978) we drill the 6x139.7 pattern and cut the centre bore to 89.1mm on our own CNC line, so the wheel hub-centres on the car with no spacer rings, in whatever diameter, width and offset you specify.

Flush Fitment
For a flush look with minimal rubbing, 15x8J ET-12 is the recommended starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Jeep Wagoneer Limited.
Maximum Aggressive Fitment
15x10J ET-25 is a more aggressive reference setup. Beyond this, expect rubbing under compression without fender rolling or camber correction.

Decision Guide
1
What's your primary use? Daily commuting → Tier A/B. Weekend street driving → Tier B/C. Show or occasional track use → Tier D/E.
2
What's your budget? Under $800 → Tier A. $800-3,400 → Tier B/C. $3,400+ → Tier D/E.
3
How much does fuel economy matter? Very important → Tier A. Somewhat important → Tier B/C. Not a priority → Tier D/E.
4
Still unsure? Tier C (Balanced / Flush Fit) is the default choice for most Jeep Wagoneer Limited owners.
Offset & Backspacing Reference
Backspacing is calculated as wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance):
- OE: 15x7J ET12 → ~4.47″ backspacing
- Flush: 15x8J ET-12 → ~4.03″ backspacing
- Max: 15x10J ET-25 → ~4.52″ 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.
Want to check a different width or offset before you order? Use our Offset & Backspacing Calculator to solve the numbers yourself, or looking for your exact Jeep spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your Jeep Wagoneer Limited? Contact ANKUSI with your bolt pattern and offset target and we will confirm the correct forged wheel spec for your build.
Custom Forged Wheels for the Jeep Wagoneer Limited (1978)
Everything above is reference data. If you want wheels actually built to it, that is what ANKUSI does: we are a forged wheel factory in Guangzhou, China, IATF 16949 and ISO 9001 certified, forging on our own 10,000-ton press and producing over 120,000 wheels a year. Forging blank, CNC machining, finishing, coating and inspection all happen in the same building — nothing is subcontracted and nothing is relabelled from another manufacturer.
Every set is cut to order, so the 6x139.7 pattern and the 89.1mm centre bore are machined for this car specifically rather than shimmed with adaptor rings. Diameter, width, offset, concavity, monoblock or multi-piece construction and the finish are all yours to choose — most Jeep orders on this platform land somewhere between the 15x8J ET-12 flush setup and the 15x10J ET-25 aggressive setup referenced above.
We do not hold 6x139.7 wheels on a shelf — they are forged to order, which is why any offset, width and bore combination on this page is buildable rather than limited to a stock list.
Frequently Asked Questions
What bolt pattern (PCD) does the Jeep Wagoneer Limited use?
The 1978 Jeep Wagoneer Limited uses a 6x139.7 bolt pattern.
How many lug bolts does the Jeep Wagoneer Limited use?
The Jeep Wagoneer Limited uses a 6-lug bolt pattern (6x139.7), so you need a 6-lug forged wheel to bolt straight on.
What is the center bore size on the Jeep Wagoneer Limited?
The Jeep Wagoneer Limited's center bore is 89.1mm. If an aftermarket wheel has a larger center bore than this, hub-centric rings are recommended so the wheel centers on the hub itself rather than relying on the lug bolts alone.
What size are the factory (stock) wheels on the Jeep Wagoneer Limited?
Factory wheels on the Jeep Wagoneer Limited are 15x7J at ET12.
What is the biggest wheel size I can fit on my Jeep Wagoneer Limited without rubbing?
The most aggressive fitment we recommend without fender work is 15x10J at ET-25 offset. Going beyond this typically causes rubbing under compression unless you roll the fenders or add camber correction.
What does a flush wheel fitment look like on the Jeep Wagoneer Limited?
For a flush look with minimal to no rubbing, we recommend 15x8J at ET-12 offset as a starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Jeep Wagoneer Limited.
Do I need wheel spacers for my Jeep Wagoneer Limited?
No. ANKUSI forges each wheel to your exact target offset, including the flush or max specs above, so you get the correct fitment without stacking spacers. Spacers are typically only used to push out an existing OE-offset wheel without replacing it, which isn't necessary when you're ordering a custom-offset forged wheel.
How do I calculate wheel backspacing for my Jeep Wagoneer Limited?
Backspacing (in inches) = wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance). For example, the flush spec above works out to roughly 4.03" of backspacing.
What's the difference between wheel offset and backspacing?
Offset is the distance in millimeters from the wheel's true centerline to its mounting face (positive offset pulls the wheel in, negative pushes it out). Backspacing is the distance in inches from the mounting face to the back edge of the wheel barrel. They describe the same fitment from two different reference points, which is why ANKUSI lists both above — some shops and tuning guides quote offset, others quote backspacing.
Can I run staggered wheels (different sizes front and rear) on my Jeep Wagoneer Limited?
The Jeep Wagoneer Limited runs the same wheel size front and rear from the factory, so staggered fitment is not required. ANKUSI can still forge a staggered set (wider rear) on request if you want a more aggressive stance.
Vehicles With the Same Hub as the Jeep Wagoneer Limited (6x139.7, 89.1 mm Bore)
In our database, 2 other Jeep entries use exactly the same 6x139.7 bolt pattern and 89.1 mm center bore. Factory wheels from these cars bolt on and center on the hub without rings; offset and width still have to be checked.
6x139.7 is used by 4.0% of the vehicle pages in our English fitment guide (258 of 6,503); 1.2% of those also use a 89.1 mm center bore.
Hub-Centric Rings for a 89.1 mm Center Bore
A wheel with a center bore larger than 89.1 mm needs a hub-centric ring. The most common combinations:
| Wheel bore | Ring size |
|---|---|
| 93.1 mm | 93.1 → 89.1 mm |
| 100.1 mm | 100.1 → 89.1 mm |
| 106.1 mm | 106.1 → 89.1 mm |
| 108.1 mm | 108.1 → 89.1 mm |
ANKUSI forged wheels are bored to exactly 89.1 mm for this vehicle, so no ring is needed.
