When I tried, the hole in the middle was to small for the hub to fit on the front. There could be different runs of them though that have different sized center holes.

They Wot fit do to the small hub hole. You either have to run a Space or have the hole machine. I personally think 94-01 wheels are hideous accept for the steelies.

Also if your Rc is 2wd the bolt pattern will be different.

Won't 5 on 5 1/2 aftermarket Ferd rims work? Autta be lots of those out there reasonable.

So how exactly are they aftermarket ford wheels? ANY Aftermarket rim that ate 5x5.5 should fit. I have yet to see any with a Small hub hole. Factory Ford truck rim might work.

My 84 RC had 5 on 4 1/2 BC, I ran cop wheels on it. In 85 that was changed to 5 on 5 1/2 BC. I'm pretty sure that standard for all 1/2 ton trucks.
