Stock Wheels with spacers

[Jeeperjamie]

I got some 1-1/2 inch spacers that I ran on my JKU still in the garage and am thinking about throwing them on the JT to give it a little more width at the wheel. Anybody got any pics of theirs with spacers to give me a idea. I'm the running the stock wheels and have desire to change to a different wheel.

You know that the wheel studs are larger diameter (metric) on the JT, right?

I thought I saw where some are running JK wheels on their JLs. I could be wrong. I just assumed a JL and JT were similar. I may give it shot on one wheel when I get home and see what happens. Still undecided if I want to put spacers on or not.

The wheels are mostly interchangeable, as the bolt pattern is the same. The studs themselves are different. You could possibly use those spacers, but you would need a set of JL/JT-specific open lug nuts to bolt on the spacers, then JK lug nuts for the wheels. I’m still not 100% certain it would work, but it probably would.

I got some JK lug nuts in the garage. I will have more time this weekend to give it a shot and see what I can come up with. I just need to find some open JT lug nuts for the spacers. I'm still not sure what I want to do. I like how it sits one day and then I see my old JKU and like how it sat.
