will Jeep wheels fit on a F-150?

I found a deal on a set of 35x12.5x15 wheels and tires. Does anyone know if jeep 5 lug wheels will fit on a ford 5 lug? Thanks!

The early Jeeps use the same bolt pattern but the wheel offset is often all wrong for our trucks. You want a maximum of 4" backspacing for our trucks, that equates to 0 offset on an 8" wheel and -2" offset on a 10" wheel.

like others have said, they have to be older. the bolt pattern for our trucks is 5x5.5, while the "newer" jeep wheels if you will are 5x4.5.... i believe the 5 lug dodge wheels fit our too...

87-96 are 5 on 4.5 as well (I have a YJ)

From what I have heard if its a NEW jeep as in the JK model, those are 5 on 5.5 as well.... but don't quote me on that.

You are correct. Most of the new Jeeps are 5x5.5"

But they are expensive as hell and you will still have to worry about the small center hole NOT fitting over the F150 front hub

Thanks for the info. They were off a 2002 Jeep so they wouldn't fit. At least it saved me a 3 hour drive to check them out.

Wheel options

I know the suzuki sami 5 lugs will fit a 79 bronco. No back space issues. I bought them 12 years ago. They are 15x10.
I've heard some of the dodge trucks will fit but what years? Is there some place in a sticky that breaks down a list of what other things will fit a 5x5.5?

What vehicles have 17" wheels with the 5x5.5 bolt pattern? I would like to move up to a 17x10 if possible but I am cheap and want to use a stock wheel and not aftermarket if possible. What back spacing should these be?

. My expedition has no front hubs to get in the way and have a set of after market Wrangler rims on it right now. I believe they came off a 2012 Wrangler. Just some slotted steelies but fit like a glove. Just thought I'd pass it on
