Default Wheel fitment question -

Looking at a few new wheels - one being the Hostile MOAB rim in a 20" with 37" toyo Mts…I have seen this rim in a 20x10 on another JKU…..I found them online at CARid, but it says it will not fit the jeep….Below are the specs - i am assuming the HUB is the wrong size because they are the right bolt pattern - am i correct?

MOAB Satin Black wheels by Hostile®. 20" x 10", -19 Offset, 5x127 Bolt Pattern, 73mm Hub.

Here is a link:

HOSTILE® MOAB Wheels - Satin Black Rims

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

As an FYI - here is a JKU with the rims on it - did they do something special to get these rims to fit?

Those are ~4.75" backspacing, so they should work without the need for wheel spacers or anything else. I ran 10" wide wheels without any problems, albeit 15's instead of 20's.
