I'm selling off my YJ project, (previously had a TJ, and still have my 73 cj project) to buy a new JK this summer. I'm looking at plain jane package with pizza cutter wheels. I'm curious about the bolt pattern on the wheels, I thought I heard 5x5" isn't that the same as older chevy 1/2 ton pickups? If so I happen to have a set of aluminum 16x10's I could use. I think I read 4.5" backspacing should just about clear 33x12.5's when turning? I'm going to try and get away with coil spacers or bumpstop extensions until I can afford to go big. It's not going to see rockcrawling, mostly sand and light trails at this point.

 

Yes, the JK has a 5 x 5 bolt pattern.
