Default Will standard 18' jeep JK wrangler rims fit on my 99 XJ Sport?

I have a 1999 XJ Sport, i found a good deal on 5 spoke rims that came off a sahara. I was wondering if these would fit???

Not without adapters. You have 5x4.5 and the wheels are 5x5. also a big difference in size. 15" vs 18"

That Good Deal will cost you quite a bit of money in the end to make them fit properly.

Good adapters are 200 bucks and honestly i would never run a adapter on my cars because i have seen what happens when one fails and you lose a wheel driving.

Also, while it's your jeep and you can do what you like, you'll look a bit of a tit with 18s on it.

You'll need adapters! But for the price of the adapters, you can get Trail Master TM9s which would be a better fit because 19" rims on an XJ scream mall crawl! That being said, I always liked the look of JK Rims LOL.

For what used jk rims and adapters cost you can get raceline beadlock rims for.Other thing is price tires for 18s vs a 15 or 16 inch rim.
