I don't think it matters i was told that 2010+ models are the ones that run into problems wit 15 inch wheels cuz of different calipers or something like that....

yes. most aluminum wheels will not fit. some can kind of be made to fit but, you will need to grind your calipers.

Hi there, I've had American Racing AR-23 15x10 aluminum wheels and they fit perfect with no rubbing or grinding with 3.75" of backspacing AND I have Rock Krawler 15x8 steel wheels with 3.75" of backspacing that I've had to grind down my front brake calipers slightly to get them to fit (can provide pics if you want of these wheels/tires ) so it seems like it can be a bit of a hit and miss thing with rims.
I thought the grinding of the calipers was a big deal until I saw ho little it actually took to get them to fit.
Just get the correct offset/backspacing for your rig in relation to tire size you're going to put on them and you'll be set
