Default Bolt Spacing 2011 Wrangler

does anyone know what the bold battern spacing on the 2011 wrangler? My buddy has some nice wheels for sale but they are a 5 x 4.5 (I think the 2011 wranglers are 5 x 5)

thanks

Not quite when it comes to Wranglers this is how it works

07 - Current = 5 x 5
87 - 06 = 5 x 4.5

As a general rule of thumb every 4-5 years there is a minor model redesign and every ten years there is a major one.

FYI There is no change in bolt pattern but there is a change in wheel sizes due to bigger brake calipers on the 2011. As per Quadratech website 15 and 16" wheels will not fit on the 2011.

+1 to JTPhoto,
17" and up is what u will be needing in rim size minimal as 2011wranglers have larger brake calipers and will/could rub.

Not actually true as I've been running 15" wheels on my 2011 since April with no issues.
There are some 15's that will work and the proper offset is key to no rubbing.

In my case these are MB72's in matte black with 35X12.50 KM2's
