Up to the flop everything is pretty standard here I guess. My question is: shoud I be going for value on turn or river? Villain is 45/27/2.5 over 55 hands.

UTG: $129.80

I'm ok with your flop and turn line. I like a smallish value raise on the river though. It looks like he could be making a blocking bet here with 10's, Q's, or Jx. If you raise it up to $10 I think he's gonna have trouble folding these hands getting such good odds.

I'd raise the river, cuz his range is like cards. I'd bump it to like 10ish. Betting the turn is prolly okay too for like $17. Btw, this isn't really a WA/WB spot because pot control goes out the window. If I have any sort of pair mid-pair/top kicker or better, I'm pretty much getting it in in a 4-bet pot.

Showdown:

Villain has JJ and hits a two outer on the river.

Made me wonder, but I know this is results oriented, if betting turn wouldn't have been a good idea.

Yep I also raise river small. Looks fine to that point.

Betting the turn is fine if you think he'll call with underpairs.
