Default JK 17"rims on WJ?

Anyone fitted 17" JK rims to a WJ? Do they fit or any probs? Tyre size not the issue, just need to know if rims bolt up.

I just picked up a set of JK rims as a second off road set, for my WH Grand.
Had to get 6mm spacers as they don't clear the brake callipers.
Might pay to check that the WJ isn't the same.

Cheers, Craig

They will give you an extra 5mm clearance between the tyre and rear shocker.

WJ standard rim is a 50mm offset versus 44.45mm on the JK rim.

I've been running them on mine for 18 months and they are great.
