The lug pattern is the same for your WJ and JK wheels. I'm not sure if that size tire will rub or not though.

I don't know about the rubicon wheels. But 04 laredo had an optional tire size, 245/75/16, with those on my 04 before the lift i had minor rubbing on the inside of the wheel well in front. I went with a 2-2.5 lift but i bought new wheels as well with a "0" offset and 4.5 inch backspacing. Had to do some minor trimming of the plastic. I will be putting 265/75/16 on this week and expect to do some additional trimming, maybe not just plastic this time. Hope this helps.

My 04 "Overland" came stock with 235/65R/17's on it so know they fit for sure on these wheels, have a trailer with an XJ on it hooked to the WJ here.
