wheel question

I have a 2005 club wagon (1 ton). I would like to put some winter tires on another set of rims, and I have a set of 91 1 ton van rims on an old van out back. As it is 15 below zero here now, I don't feel like pulling these off and trying them. Anyone know if these '91 rims will fit my '05?

As always, thanks in advance!

the older 8-lug wheels used a 8x6.5" pattern.
in 98 (??), that changed to 8x170mm (just a little bigger)...

so the short answer is no.

I'm sorry, but your information is incorrect. Ford 1 ton vans are still 8x6.5", only the F series trucks changed to metric rims. So, yes, dadsgreenpsd can use his old rims on the new van.

Excellent! Now, my son has a project when the weather gets above 0 deg.F

That will make it much more economical to change/rotate, etc.

Thanks!
