Tomorrow I will pick up the phone and call the dealer. Both are 5 lug
but the Wrangler is 15 inch and the Liberty's wheels are 16 inch.

Wondering how going from 16" to 15" (keeping the final diameter the
same) would affect things like tendancy to flip over in quick lane
changes...

Re: Will Liberty wheels fit on a 99 Wrangler?
 
The sixteen to fifteen inch is not a problem, there is no improved
disk size to clear, which is the reason Ford and GM full size went to
