Hey guys, I’ve got what might be a dumb question. I’m going to be building an off-road trailer, and I’m going to use a timbren axle-less suspension. The folks from eTrailer recommended this 5x5 hub to fit Jeep wheels:

The only issue is that it comes with ½” studs as opposed to 14mm. (JK size, vs JL size according to Quadratec: https://www.quadratec.com/c/reference/wheel-bolt-patterns-typical-lug-nut-torque-specifications) So I know that obviously they would need different lug nuts, but the real question is, will JK and JL wheels mount interchangeably on these two sizes of studs? I assume so, but I need some validation.
My plan is to purchase some used Jeep wheels to go on the trailer, and I want matching sizes and bolt patterns so I only have to carry one spare for either the Jeep or the trailer. So can anyone chime in with some expertise here? Thanks!
