So I live in Alaska and my only option for affordable rims is amazon (free shipping). I know I want 17x9 rims and i need a 5x5 bolt pattern but the rims I am looking up the amazon fitment tool says they don't fit a jk. I do not know if it is a fluke with their fitment tool or if the rims truly don't fit and there are specs that I am missing. I don't quite understand the specs for rims but am looking for something to fit 35in nittos
Rim help!!!

What you can do is find a set of stock 17" wheels off of craigslist and run a set of 1.5" spidertrax wheel spacers and that will allow you plenty of room to fit some 35" tires
jeeeep

what year is your JK? and what rims are you looking at?

There is nothing wrong with a set of Hun centric spacers like the spidertrax. The little shim spacers you find at an auto zone or the like are what you want to avoid.

so this rim is one that I believe has correct specs other than bore diameter i have a 2014 jk my bore diameter is 71.5 this rim is 72.6. As far as I know that should not matter.

Yes all 4. Would run you about $200 for all 4. Still ends up being cheaper then 5 new wheels and 5 new wheels you may not even like

Shouldn't be any rubbing. That's what I plan on running my 35s on a 2.5 in lift with

You will have no rubbing especially with the TF coils cause I guarantee you will end up with way more than 3" of lift
