Default River Raider Jeep

Ok, i cant figure this out. You know River Raider's big red 2 door jeep, well according to the info on it, it has 15x10 DC-1's on it. My question is, how did they get those rims on a jk. The 15 inch DC-1s don't have a 5 on 5 bolt pattern. Any ideas or theories? And in case i am wrong about the non existing DC-1s, can someone please show me a link to get them?
Thanks

Spidertrax makes spacers to adapt to either 5 on 4.5" or 5 on 5.5", in addition to the standard spacers. I imagine that's the answer, since it would also give clearance for the brake calipers.

Ok, thats what i thought, but i know it has some new Superior alloy shafts front and rear. This wouldn't change the pattern in anyway would it?

It would if they ordered um with a different pattern, yeah. Of course, if that's the case, then there's no need for spacers. So, it's either axles or spacers. Take your pick.
