* Bolt Pattern (PCD): This refers to the number of lug nuts and the diameter of the circle they form. The bolt patterns must match exactly. While some Wrangler generations *might* share a bolt pattern with a Nitro, it's not a given. You'll need to check the bolt pattern for both the specific year and model of Wrangler and Nitro.
* Wheel Offset: This is the distance between the mounting surface of the wheel and the centerline of the wheel. Incorrect offset can cause rubbing against the suspension, brakes, or bodywork. Even if the bolt pattern matches, the offset needs to be compatible.
* Wheel Diameter and Width: The wheel diameter must be compatible with the Nitro's tire size and suspension. Too large a diameter might rub, and too small might not clear the brakes. Similarly, wheel width needs to be suitable to avoid rubbing.
* Center Bore: This is the hole in the center of the wheel that fits over the hub. The center bore diameter must be correct, or a hub-centric ring might be required.
In short: You absolutely *must* verify all these specifications (bolt pattern, offset, diameter, width, and center bore) for both the Wrangler wheels and your Nitro before attempting to install them. Failing to do so could lead to unsafe driving conditions. Consult a wheel fitment guide or a tire shop professional to ensure compatibility.
