Are 5x5.5 and 5x139.7 the same bolt pattern?
Yes. 5x5.5 inches and 5x139.7 mm describe the same five-lug circle. A wheel stamped either way will fit the same hub pattern, provided the offset, center bore, width, and brake clearance also match.
What vehicles use the 5x5.5 bolt pattern?
Common applications include Jeep CJ (1941 to 1986), early J-series Wagoneers (about 1962 to 1973), Ram 1500 from the mid-1990s through 2018 plus the Ram 1500 Classic through 2024, Ford half-tons and full-size Broncos through 1996, and the Suzuki Samurai. Jeep Wrangler YJ and TJ use 5x4.5, not 5x5.5. The 2019-and-newer Ram 1500 DT uses 6x139.7.
Can I put 5x5.5 wheels on a 5x5 (5x127) vehicle?
No. 5x5.5 and 5x5 are different bolt circles and are not interchangeable. We recommend a wheel made for the pattern on your hub rather than adapters.
Do 5x5.5 wheels from a Ram 1500 fit a Jeep CJ?
The bolt pattern matches, but the hubs do not. Jeep CJ and early J-series hubs are much larger (about 108 mm) than a Ram 1500 hub. A wheel that centers on one will not automatically center on the other. Check center bore, offset, and width before you swap them.
How soon do 5x5.5 wheels ship, and what is the return window?
