will these rims work?

[W.P._Turbocars]

Got a free pair of early 90's cherokee whlles today and they appear to be 5X100. Question is, will they work on our fwd stuff? Was thinking about having them mounted with slicks, but won't have a chance to get them to the car for quite a while. They are a 5 star 15"X7" just like these:

I think you will find they are 4 1/2" bolt circle which is the same as the large bolt circle mini vans. I mounted a set of minivan wheels on a Cherokee and they were fine but haven't tried the Cherokee wheels on the minivan yet. Bolt circle wise they would be fine but backspace and caliper clearance might be an issue. No good for 5 x 100mm though.
Thanks

yes cherokees are the 4 1/2 or 5x114.3 pattern. i mounted some lace 16s off a chrysler concorde i had on my last cherokee, looked real nice.

on the bright side, even if you cant use em, those things recycle for at least $20 a piece in aluminum weight! :)

Scrapper? ebay them!

I might do some machining to them and use at least one of them for a hose reel using an extra 5x100 hub I have laying around. :)

They aren't in the best of shape and have a little curbage on them or they would go to ebay. They do look better since I blasted them though.
