wheels

so i need new wheels for my truck since one of mine got ruined by the lugnuts falling off, and they are all old and crusty looking and i dont want to buy a new 150wheel for it to look different then the other 3. i had these wheels in mind since ive always liked the old truck look to them-http://www.summitracing.com/parts/USW-70-5055/
what i really need to know is would these work just fine on my 76 f150 4x4 with some 32" tires on it? thanks and have a nice day.

They'll work... but keep in mind backspacing...32x10.5 on 15x8 wheels or 32x12.5 on 15x10 wheels. The link above are 15x10s with only 3.75" BS.

Yes they will, I bought the same rims with PCD 5x139.7mm which is the same as 5X5.5inch. Just keep in mind the width of the tyres you are planning to get that they will fit on 10j rims.

Check/measure your existing wheel width and backspacing.. Your tires will fit on 15x10s but may rub at full lock given the backspacing at only 3.75 inches.
