Default Few quick wheel questions.

Ok so I found a set of 17in alloy wheels off a 07' Rubicon on craigs list and I have found online that they are 5 on 4.5 bolt pattern so they'll fit but I just had a few questions about them on some things i couldn't find.

1) Does anyone know the backspacing of these rims?

2) And also I've seen a few threads on here about painting wheels but was wondering if anyone had any experience on painting these wheels and if so maybe a few pointers on it?

Any input will be greatly appreciated thanks!

Those shouldn't be 5x4.5, so sorry they won't work. They are 5x5.

You can get adapters and use them. My friend has them on his MJ.
