Im looking for a stock set of rims to fit my gfs truck. I had a ranger b4 and i know they are a 5x4.5 lug pattern but I'm trying to find stock 16s to toss on temporarily.

I read the tech section and i know mustangs, explorers, fusions, sport tracs etc fit lug wise but does anyone know of any rim the fit over the lockout? Without machining the whole reason I'm trying to do this is that I'm ordering some 38x14.50s for my f350 so i was gonna toss my 35s on her truck until her 35" dick cepeks and soft 8s come in. So spending anything more then junkyard rims doesn't make much sense.
 
Alright so from what i found for the jeep rims to fit i dont need to machine them they're a 71.5 mm hub bore to a 4wd rangers 70.3mm ( at least that's what I've read still for a 4wd haven't measured my rims)

The one that work are a 2002-present jeep liberty or a 1980-2006 tj/yj. Problem is they're all 7" wide still. You can get Rubicon wheels that are 16x8 which i thought would be perfect. Next problem is that they all are 5.5" back spacing except the Rubicon which is 5" which is no good.... rangers stock have 3.-5" so if someone wanted to run a 10.5 wide tire they may work.

But for me running 12.50 wide tires with a 5" backspacing id rub the radius arms way too easy. That could be solved by wheel spacers but IMO its not worth it unless you get the rims for next to free.. 250$ for wheel spacers plus the used rims would cost more then just buying new steel wheels...

Oh well i tried
