Rims not fitting

Hey folks, I have standard cab 99' 3.0 FFV fleet truck. Bought for daily driver. As plain as they come. Want to sport it up a bit for soon to be driving teenager. Found some stock rims off 95 Ranger, deertrack style, 5 lug. However center hole is too small. Can I modify these? The guy at the tire store said no it is a hub or center bearing wheel and could work loose. If so, what tool is best to enlarge hole?

Thanks

They changed the front hub/rotor assembly from 98 up. 93-97 I believe share the same hub/rotor size.

I would not DIY that. You may find a machine shop to do it, but remember that that center hole is very important. If you mess it up you can't balance the rim right, and it may be unstable on the truck.
