Jeep 5 on 5 wheel ?

Does anyone know if jeep wheels from a newer Cherokee or wrangler with the 5 on 5 bolt pattern will fit? I know it's the same bolt pattern as a 2wd gm but what about the hub bore. Thinking on putting srt 20x9 +35 offset and 20x10 +50 offset repo ram viper wheels that they sell on eBay on my stepside.

Newer wheels use more backspacing than older ones. If they do bolt on, they will be tucked into the fenders quite a bit. Just to give you an idea, a stock 8" wide rim has a backspacing of 4". Not sure what your new wheels are but you can compare it to that baseline.

So basically with the correct spacers I could probably get them flush with the fenders

Jeep wheels have smaller hub bores, the wheels will not bolt on unless you machine your hubs or wheels. If you have spacers/adapters made you can make sure they are hub and wheel centric. www.motorsport-tech.com
