Question in topic, bought some rims off an '08 wrangler that did not fit, do not want to make the same mistake.

Get a set of spider trax wheel spacer/adpters. Will solve the bolt pattern and back spacing problem.

Most Jeeps before the JK and after the CJ are 5 on 4.5

The bolt pattern conversion started with the WJ's which are 5 on 5 like the JK's..

I believe all YJ's, TJ's, XJ's, and ZJ's are all 5 on 4.5..........I think. So yeah, what nick said. Those adapters are nice for solving the back spacing issue but for $200 you might be better of selling what you have and getting the correct bolt pattern and back spacing on a set of soft eights.
