Different Bolt Pattern

Different Bolt Pattern
What are my options other than adapters if I want to get a wheel that isn't offered in the Ranger bolt pattern? The wheel I want is I think an F150 pattern. Anyways, can I like have the center filled with metal and then redrilled for the ranger pattern? Or is there some cool and crazy thing that I haven't even thought of?
For those that are wondering, this is the wheel... 17x10" is what I want:

Economically speaking.. adapters are your best bet. *I* wont run adapters PERIOD. Have seen Wowak almost loose a wheen and heard all about ScottyG's little ' frame laying ' around a corner..
I wouldn't compromise the integrity of your drivetrain just for a set of wheels, theres nicer ones out there for ya

It doesn't say anything about redrilling them.
And, if you think about it... the bolts are like 1/2"...the ranger circle is 4.5"...the wheel circle is 5.5"...so that means that the holes will be touching. so he'll have these big ugly holes in his rims.
It's really not worth it Kyle. Just get some MT Classics if you want 17s you can get rock crawlers in 17s also, but i don't know about the lug circle.

Actually you can't get MT Classic IIs in 17" sizes.. not on 4wp.com anyways. And I don't want rock crawlers. Not a big fan of them. I realized about the holes which is why I thought you could maybe get them filled in and redrilled. I know there are wheel shops that can respin the wheel to repair a broken lip or something like that, I had it fixed on my last car after I slid into a curb.
D I am with you, I don't want to run adapters either! That's why I was asking about other alternatives to getting these wheels to fit.
I know the wheels are a little pretty for off-roading, but I'm going to only be able to do limited off-roading while I'm at school. If it was strictly for off-roading I wouldn't be getting 17s anyways! Like 17" rock crawlers... what's the point?
Thanks Jack Sparrow I will try and see if I can't find a place around here like that wheel collision center.

Yes a little further down the road I'm going to go up to 35s and I think the look of 17s on 35s is badass.
Jey I think you're on to something! haha
Dirty, Rangers use the 5x4.5 bolt pattern... how would that fit? And I thought B-Series was the same as the Ranger also? Am I missing something?
