Default 2010 only!!!

Have a look at the front callipers and your stock rims. You will see that there is very little room in there with your 17" rims so 16" wont fit. This question has been asked so many times it should be entered into the JK FAQ section!

Is yours a MY2010 or a MY2009 but registered as a 2010?

And? What backspacing/offset are you running? Just a blanket statement like you've given adds zero value, back it up dude with the rest of the information.
