I’m looking to replace my worn out 33x12.5x15 tires and chrome wheels with something smaller. Is the lug pattern always been the same for jeeps across the years and models?

Hey folks! Reviving this old thread. I'm looking to get a set of new wheels. The current wheels on my 92 YJ are from a newer Rubicon I think. They look ok...but I have quite a rub when I turn tight. I think it's the tire hitting the leaf spring. I think that's a result of the bigger tires with the rims having too much of a positive offset. I would like to get a new set with more of a negative offset...though not sure how much. I also want to make sure I understand the lug pattern terminology. 5 is the number of posts and the 4.5 would be the distance from center post to center post? Is that correct?

Thanks in advance!
