I'm doing a full resto build and would like to do is move from the stock 15" wheels to 17" wheels with a 5x5 bolt pattern. I'm keeping the OEM axles and hubs so that makes it a bit more difficult (hub bore is pretty large) but 5x5 lug pattern opens up so many choices for wheels and tires.
There was some discussion here in 2016 on lug patterns and spacer rings.

First step is find the right adapter. There are a lot out there but I'm wondering if anyone has used one and recommendations. The quadtratrac site shows the hub diameter is pretty large on the wagons compared to modern / all other jeeps so not sure how much of a challenge that is going to present.

I'm hoping someone has gone through this exercise already and can point me in the right direction. I haven't landed on style yet which is why I'm looking to get a combo in place that allows me maximum freedom.

thanks for any pointers/feedback!
