Correct, TJ steel rims are 7" wide. Most cherokee and YJ steel ones were 7, but I think there was the odd 6" wide one back in the 80's.
Most of the aluminum ones were 7, but a few like the gamblers, Canyon's (TJ ONLY!) Ravine's and Rubicon Moab's are 8 inches wide.
98 XJ Sport 2 Dr, 3", 33's and Bushwacker Flat Flares
87 XJ Wagoneer 5", Dana 44, 34" Swamper TSL's
97 TJ 5.2 Magnum V8 swap, 4" and 33" MTZ's- GF's Jeep
84 Mustang GT-Built 351W 5spd
97 XJ - 3.5", 31" BFG. 370,000 KMS and counting!
