I believe the 5x5 bolt pattern is actually 5x127 in the conversion. Double check it but I don't think those wheels will work on your JK.

I think he is right, I just ordered new rims and they are listed as 5x127 on the invoice.

This is the correct bolt pattern:

Yup factory is 6.25" backspacing, these are 5" they will stick out about an inch more than factory. I have see a lot of JK's on Rockstars

Here is a good offset vs backspacing chart.
