Another stupid question about wheel spacers....
I'll be taking delivery of my 08' in a couple of weeks and I'm pre-ordering some of my mods. Question is: What is the bolt pattern on a JK? My current Jeep is 5 X 4.5. Are they all the same?
I know....I could probably find out for myself if I put a little effort into a search but, I don't have a lot of posts'..I just wanted to put this one out there...lol

It is 5 on 5. I too will be picking up my 08 Rubi soon (totalled my 07 X). You will see that the wheel selection is pretty limited for the 5 on 5 bold pattern. You also must watch the backspacing on aftermarket wheels. The rims I liked came with 5 inch back spacing and not in 5 on 5 so I ordered wheel adapters from Spidertrax to change the 5 on 5 to a 5 on 5.5 and they are 1 3/8 thick which will pull the wheels outward reducing the backspacing to 3 5/8". I have found a ton of information in these forums.. I believe the backspacing should be between 3.5 - 4. I think it also depends on what size tire you plan on running...
I to have been slowly collecting parts for my JK.. So far the wheels, adapters and bushwacker fender flares are sitting in my garage just waiting... Skyjacker 5" for the 2-door is next as well as 37" Toyos... Then the "Woods" bumper mods are next....
