Rims

Post by 69F110 »

Just a quick clarification...our trucks will take the rims off of F150's up to 1996 right? Does that include Bronco's?

I saw some sweet rims on a bronco that is abandoned...I plan on hitting up the Police to see if it can be purchased. The tires are great as well.

It is a 1986 Bronco 2WD.

lug pattern is the same to 96. 5x5.5
offsets will differ, but those bronco wheels should fit. unless they are some radical aftermarket offest and width.

Being a 2wd Bronco It would be a Bronco II. Which would be same as a Ranger which isn't the same as a full size Bronco. I believe there 5 on 4-1/2" NOT 5 on 5-1/2"
As far as I know, Ford never made a full size 2wd Bronco.

Thanks gentlemen. I'll go and re-look them, they did not appear to be over sized.

ezernut9mm,

If I get a hold of them, are you still interested in getting the rims off the back of my truck?

i think the 81 f100 is a ******* child. it has a different lug pattern than the 150 and the rest of the half ton trucks.
i have had wheels off a 93 on mine before and lots of guys are running the aluminium bronco style wheels.
