======================================
If they are the aluminum 15X7 or 8 TJ style wheels like these:

They are the same bolt pattern, no problem on the rear, but the small center hole WILL NOT clear the front hubs! They have to be machined out.............

If they are the steel wheels, then they usually have a larger hub hole....

Here's a pic of my 94 with the TJ 15X8 wheels that I had machined to clear my hubs & I installed aftermarket push-thru center caps:

heres a set of steel wheels from a '01 wrangler that i run as winter wheels, no work required unless you have 4wd, then its just a simple hacking out of a plastic center. Name:  fordtruck001.jpg
