ION Wheels 171-5865P 171 Series 15x8 -27mm Polished 5x114.3 Jeep Wrangler TJ

Vehicle Fitment

• Compatible with all vehicles using a 5x114.3mm (5x4.5 in.) bolt pattern with up to 83.82mm hub bore
• Common 5x114.3 applications include: Jeep Wrangler TJ (1997-2006), Jeep Wrangler LJ Unlimited (2004-2006), Jeep Cherokee XJ (1984-2001), Jeep Wrangler YJ (1987-1995), Nissan Frontier / Pathfinder / Xterra, Honda CR-V / Ridgeline, Ford Mustang (2005-Present), Ford Edge, Hyundai Santa Fe / Tucson, Kia Sorento, and many additional trucks, SUVs, and cars sharing this bolt pattern

Fitment Notes

• The 15 in. diameter with -27mm offset and 3.44 in. backspacing is a proven, widely used specification for Jeep Wrangler TJ, LJ, and YJ builds and Jeep Cherokee XJ applications running 31-35 in. all-terrain and mud-terrain tires. These Jeep platforms use the 5x114.3 bolt pattern and benefit from the inner clearance and outward stance this specification provides, particularly on lifted builds with 2-4 in. of suspension travel.
• Hub bore is 83.82mm. This bore size fits the factory hub diameter of many 5x114.3 vehicles directly without requiring hub-centric rings, including most Jeep TJ, LJ, YJ, and XJ applications. Verify your specific vehicle's hub bore before installation - if your hub bore is smaller than 83.82mm, this wheel cannot be installed.
• Offset is -27mm. This moderate negative offset positions the wheel face outboard of the barrel centerline, providing the inner clearance needed for aftermarket suspension lift components, larger brake setups, and wider tire profiles while pushing the tire outward for a visually aggressive stance. Confirm clearance at full suspension compression and full steering lock before installation.
• Backspacing is 3.44 in. This shallow backspace is consistent across the full ION 171 15x8 lineup and provides the inner clearance characteristic of this wheel size and offset combination. Verify that adequate clearance exists between the wheel barrel and your brake caliper, spring perch, and frame rails, particularly on vehicles with aftermarket brake upgrades or dropped pitman arms.
• The polished aluminum finish requires regular maintenance to preserve its appearance. Use a non-abrasive aluminum wheel cleaner and apply a polished aluminum sealant regularly, particularly in winter climates or where road salt is used, to prevent oxidation and pitting.
• Lug nuts are NOT included. Confirm your vehicle's stud thread pitch and lug nut seat type before purchasing hardware. Jeep TJ/LJ/YJ/XJ applications use 1/2 in. x 20 thread pitch with a conical/acorn seat.
• Sold as a single wheel. Order the quantity required for your application.

Features

• Classic 8-hole bullet hole / revolver-spoke design with a concave face profile and a prominent 2.41 in. stepped outer lip - ION's Baja and off-road racing-inspired aesthetic at the 15x8 / 5x114.3 specification that is most closely associated with classic Jeep Wrangler and Cherokee off-road builds, where the revolver-spoke polished wheel is a traditional and enduring styling choice.
• 2.41 in. outer lip is one of the most prominent dimensions in the ION 171 lineup, producing a visually deep, stepped concave appearance that is particularly effective at 15 in. diameter - the relatively small wheel size and large lip depth create the bold, dimensional look most associated with the bullet hole aesthetic on trail-oriented builds.
• Full polished aluminum finish covers the entire wheel face, spokes, and lip with the bright natural sheen of cast aluminum alloy, delivering a chrome-adjacent appearance that has been a classic pairing with the Jeep Wrangler TJ and Cherokee XJ platforms for decades.
• 360-degree contact between the inner and outer wheel sections distributes impact and load forces evenly around the full circumference, providing structural resistance to the rock strikes, trail impacts, and repeated off-road shocks characteristic of Jeep and truck off-road use.
• Excellent brake airflow through the open spoke and bullet hole layout promotes heat dissipation to the brake rotor and caliper - a functional benefit on trail vehicles subjected to sustained technical terrain braking on descents and in technical obstacles.
• At approximately 21 lb. per wheel, the 171-5865P offers meaningful weight savings over a comparable steel 15 in. wheel, reducing unsprung rotating mass and easing loads on wheel bearings, hubs, and suspension components on both trail and street use.
• -27mm offset and 3.44 in. backspacing are the established specifications for the 15x8 Jeep YJ/TJ/XJ off-road wheel application, providing inner clearance for lift hardware and larger tires while positioning the tire outboard for an aggressive visual stance without the extreme fender clearance concerns of a deeper negative offset.
• 2,500 lb. per-wheel load rating is appropriate for the light-duty truck, SUV, and off-road platforms that share the 5x114.3 bolt pattern.
• Exposed lug design - lug nuts are visible through the spoke openings, consistent with the classic open-wheel off-road aesthetic of the ION 171 series.
• ION Alloy logo center cap (P/N C101712) included for a finished, branded appearance on the wheel face.
• Designed in the USA by ION Wheels (The Wheel Group), a manufacturer with nearly 20 years of experience producing aftermarket truck, SUV, and off-road wheels.

Product Description

The ION Wheels 171-5865P is a 15x8 one-piece cast aluminum wheel from ION's Series 171 lineup, finished in full polished aluminum and drilled for the 5x114.3mm (5x4.5 in.) bolt pattern. With -27mm offset, 3.44 in. backspacing, and an 83.82mm hub bore, this wheel's specification directly targets the Jeep Wrangler TJ, LJ, and YJ and Jeep Cherokee XJ platforms - the vehicles most closely associated with the 15x8 / 5x114.3 / -27mm wheel specification in the off-road market. The 83.82mm hub bore is a direct fit for many of these Jeep applications without requiring hub-centric rings, and the 3.44 in. backspacing provides the inner clearance needed to clear aftermarket suspension lift hardware, dropped pitman arms, and larger brake components on lifted builds running 31-35 in. tires.

The Series 171's 2.41 in. stepped outer lip is one of the most prominent dimensions in the lineup - at 15 in. diameter, the combination of a relatively small wheel with a deep-stepped polished lip and concave face creates the bold, classic revolver-spoke appearance that has been associated with polished aluminum Jeep wheels since the early days of the YJ and TJ platforms. This aesthetic is one of the most enduring in the Jeep aftermarket segment, and the ION 171 delivers it at a price point that makes the all-polished look accessible for builds where budget is a consideration alongside appearance. The open spoke arrangement provides genuine brake airflow, and 360-degree inner-to-outer contact provides the structural durability needed for repeated off-road impacts.

The 5x114.3 bolt pattern is shared widely beyond the Jeep segment - Nissan Frontier and Pathfinder, Honda CR-V and Ridgeline, Ford Mustang, and many other trucks, SUVs, and cars use this pattern - making the 171-5865P a versatile option for non-Jeep applications as well, provided the -27mm offset and 3.44 in. backspacing suit the vehicle's suspension and brake clearance requirements. Lug nuts are not included, and thread pitch varies by platform. The ION 171-5865P carries a lifetime structural warranty and a one-year finish warranty to the original purchaser and is sold as a single wheel.
