Default Jk wheels on an XJ

Would jk wheels from a 2012 model stock fit my stock height xj with the correct 1 inch spacer/adapters?

Depending on what size tyres you use
And the fact spacers are illegal and quite dangerous

They should fit.

According to the internet
Jk wheels have 6.25 back space (depending on wheels, assuming 7.5 wide as most are)
Xj have 5.25 (depending on what stock wheels you have)

The jk wheels, with the spacer, will have a bs of 5.25
So they will be an outstanding 6mm or so further out
And the same inward.

Hopefully my maths is correct lol

Though a 1in space may not be enough to cover the end.of the studs? Would be close.

Mudhunter put JK rims on his XJ but he had a 3.5" lift.
