Interchangeable rims

Hey all! So, when reading about 8.8 swaps, i noticed that the Ford explorer, and Mercury Mountaineer both have 4.5 bolt patterns. Hence why the 8.8 is so adaptable to the TJ. This made me wonder what kind of rims are able to be put on the TJ from other manufacturers.

The only thing that would concern me is the backspacing. I have no idea if other rims would have completely different offsets due to different wheel well/frame structure/etc. But if i think it would be useful money-saving knowledge to know if you can pull certain size rims from a junk yard to use in place of expensive aftermarket ones when you want to roll bigger tires. So, does anyone have rims from other vehicles on their rigs? Can we see pictures? Thanks!
