I've been thinking about how a Renegade would look lowered on widened steelies or nascar style wheels offset to fill up flush with the wheelwells. I'm not sure who or what to blame for these thoughts.

It's not quite the same thing but I remember seeing a guy on instagram that slammed his renegade and is now in process of hemi swapping it..

A big higher up with some more tire and I don't actually think it'd look bad.
less wheel diameter is needed as well
Oh definitely. In my mind I equate more tire to less wheel diameter, but that's not always conveyed.
I'll just leave this here.

Great. I was going to say no. Just don't do it.
But that looks good.
In reply to Noddaz :
And it would look even better with some 15x9 Diamond steelies.
In reply to Apexcarver :
Am I the only one who sees that as a positive?
I am lifting mine a little and getting more tire but that red white and blue one looks really good.
One of the Facebook groups I'm on has someone swapping in a turbo honda K motor, and someone else making up a longer travel suspension with upper control arms. If the two of them could work together it would be pretty fun.
This thread reminds me of my previous desire for something like this. But with some 17x10s or even 15s, not 19+ like most of the pics I see
I had an image or two to add but I can't figure out how to do it from my phone. The interface is pretty awful :(
With silver/black wheels and some meaty tires, replacing those:
This is a Jeep Renegade.

No, that is a CJ7, with a Renegade trim package.
I saw this one at one of the dealerships I work with the other day and thought how neat it was. Then I was reminded of what a horrible track record they have for reliability and quickly wiped it from my mind.
Still kind of cool though.
In reply to Loweguy5 :
For as bad as a Jeep shaped Fiat could be I've got no complaints. So far it's just been scheduled maintenance, front brakes, and front sway bar links
There is a Filipino hot rodding style based on surplus WW2 jeeps called owner-type. They are generally flat fender bodies, slammed to the ground, with independent front suspension and some sort of Japanese 4 cylinder. I am all in for an owner-type Jeep renegade.

I want to see this with the roof cut off from the b pillar back to make for a modern Comanche..
Does anyone else think that looks like a jumping spider?

We've had one since the beginning of 2016 that we bought new. We're about to hit 60k miles (mostly non-highway) and it's been just scheduled maintenance so far.

So like this? I approve.
They're just so cute looking! and new car math wasn't all that bad for AWD and you used to be able to get them in 3 pedal too!
