will these wheels work

I've been trying to figure out a pair of cheap wheels for my 4x4 f150 and I was wondering if these would work?

It doesn't say that they will fit but there doesn't seem to be any good rims for our truck. Thanks

those should work, I got some for cheaper than that at Discount, they were black wagon wheels, I think something like 40-50 a wheel, but not for sure on that.

Arnt any good lookin wheels for your truck? You must not be lookin at the right bolt pattern. If you search for 5x5.5. Thats one your looking for. If you search the wheel size you want on ebay you will find them. I get most of my wheels from ebay. Like if you search 15x10 most of the wheel companies offer them in 5 lug small (rangers,jeeps,ect), 5 lug big(F150/Bronco), 6 lug (chevy/toyota), 8 lug (3/4 ton, 1 ton)
How bout these:

Junk Yard......Bro

I paid $10 a piece of the factory steel wheels. and another $5 a piece for the beauty rings.
Sanded them down and Painted them Rustolium gloss Black abot 3 years ago.

You can safely fit 12.50 wide tires to the factory rim.

Thats what I run is a 33"X12.50R15

If you order rims , watch and match your back spacing .

Some times it is good to adjust your back spacing when running wider tires.So you don't hit the control arms so much and loose turning radius.

I like that these are 17s. And I'm worried about backspacing but I guess I could always adjust it out. I just saw that
