same as a Samurai.

BEWARE!  If you are looking for wheels in the salvage yard, the center hole must be large enough to clear the locking hub!  Not just any 5 x 5.5 wheel will work!

do a search for wheels at Ack's  FAQ.

 Wheelbase? You mean wider track width. Wheelbase is the measurement from the center of the front wheel to the center of the rear wheel.
97 Sport
265/70-16s
2" lift
2.0 swap
I know...Pretty boring... FOR NOW...
