Wheel Swap

Guys,

What newer model rims will bolt up to my 95 2WD XLT? I have the factory aluminum deep dish (no rivets) rims with the red center caps tops. I am assuming these were the original rims that came on the truck. I would like to put a taller rim on the vehicle but would like to stay with OEM rims for an original look.

Thanks, Scott

There's lot of aftermarket stuff available. Just not newer OEM. Ford changed the pattern in 1997.

Check into aftermarket. They arent horribly overpriced like they once used to be. you can still spend a fortune if you want too, but you can get some cheaper decent looking ones too.

Thanks guys, I only paid $900 for the truck so spending $1000 for rims and tires is out of the question.

the rims on your truck are actually made by american racing wheel. they sell the same things, maybe you can get a taller one with 5 on 5.5. and keep the stock look. they arnt that expensive either. i checked into it for my 91 F250. (with rivets) i forget what they were but not too bad.
