UNL1MTD / hornbrod:

Nice looking rigs 8) ! What brand and size are those rims :dunno: ? They are very sharp looking :thumbsup: .

 

Rims are Stock Jeep Ravine Style (15x8) - they came stock on my '05 Unlimited and I think some sports came with them aswell. They aren't bad but max tire width is 10.50 because the backspacing is 5.5.

 

I actually sold my stock set to a guy with tires for 400. Bought this set with tires for 300. Each deal was 5 tires, but I ended up with a non matching spare and less tread. Shoulda never sold, but I didnt think I would ever be needing 31s again. :thwak:

my 88 is whight some dumb guy put olympic stickers on it w/ a gold stripe :dunno: not sure why tho?

[JeepcoMJ]

no "dumb guy" put olympic stickers on it...it's the 88 olympic edition, jeep was chosen that year as the official olympic vehicle, so there ya go. now you know something more about your mj.

[project88mj]

really was there many different options for this truck or were they all the same?

[JeepcoMJ]

so far as options on any package...basically, you could choose what you wanted and how you wanted it without regard to it being a olympic, laredo, pioneer, eliminator, etc.

[project88mj]

cause it has the sticker (olyimpic) and the badge that says pioneer soo what does thet meen

[JeepcoMJ]

it means that it's got both sticker sets. *shrug*

 

i have no idea what options your truck has, but all i can say is the decals are just decals, and in my experience don't signify anything of import besides type of carpet and seat options. chances are you have a cloth carpet, but seats were buyer's choice on the pioneer in my experience.

 

a mj could be ordered as per the buyer's request, so it all varies upon what the customer wanted

oh

The decal just means that AMC/Jeep was a sponsor of the Olympics in 1988. My '88 XJ has an Olympic 5-ring decal in one of the back side windows. It's a Pioneer -- not to be confused with something called an "Olympic Edition" that was offered in some other year.
