Wheels from an Aerostar will fit, at least that was the case with my 91 Ranger.

mustang rims fit, but with some difficulty. Without the correct back spacing the front hubs will stick out too far and you won't be able to get the centercap on.


Do a google search for v8 ranger. You will want to find the info on project red ranger. He put mustang cobra R rims on his truck, and tells you the correct backspacing.

Oh ya, stupid point, but be sure you don't buy rims from a "fox" body mustang(79 to 94). The had a 4 bolt pattens, not five.

Ranger wheels are 12mm offset, Mustang wheels are 24 or 26mm (until 05 when they went to 35mm). So, typically it takes a 7/16" spacer to get the tires in the right location with Mustang wheels.
