Bronco II Ranger Wheel Swap question

Hey everyone,

I came across a set of 15x6 OEM 12-hole wheels from a 1989 Bronco II at a local junkyard and I’m considering grabbing them for my 1990 Ford Ranger 2WD. My truck currently has 14x6 wheels, and I’m looking to upgrade to 15s to run slightly larger tires.

My main concern is the center bore compatibility. I've read conflicting info online and even in the “1983–2011 Ford Ranger Wheel Fitment Guide” here - it lists the hub bore as anywhere from 70.3mm to 70.5mm, and I’ve seen other sources mention 70.6mm. I know the Bronco II shares a lot with the 1st-gen Rangers, but if the B II wheel’s center bore is smaller than the Ranger’s hub, they won’t fit, and I’d like to avoid any issues like vibration or wobble at highway speeds.

I wonder what the actual hub bore size is for a 2wd 1990 Ranger (I don’t have a caliper to measure atm).
Has anyone here run these specific Bronco II wheels on a 2WD Ranger of this era? Was it a perfect fit or did you run into issues?

Thanks in advance!
 
P.S. this is the bronco II they’re on and what the rims look like.
