Changing wheels

I'm looking to change the wheels on my 98 Cherokee Sport. I'm not too familiar with the sizing of the wheels so bear with me.

Right now, I've got the stocker wheels .

I've become partial to the Rubicon Moab wheels


My questions are this;
(1) What size are the original stock wheels and the backspacing? 15x7, ...?
(2) What size are the Moab wheels? I believe they are 16X8? Am I correct and whats the backspacing on these?
(3) Anyone have a picture?

The car is not off roaded, just looking for something different a little nicer, so I'm not really concerned with going with less tire

*These are not pics of my Jeep, just using them for reference.

stock are 15x7 i think, i have crager 363's i think it is their nice looking rims and cheap at 50-60 a pop. but their all chrome i dont kno if you would like that. get a 16x8 if it's just gonna be mostly street driven its a nice looking size and can fit a slightly wider tire if you want one.
