Not without spacers. Rangers are 5x4.5 and f150's are 5x5.5.

they put stress on front hubs and your turning circle is larger. Better stance and the rear will be more stable. but remember they are not as strong as the stock bolt pattern. suggest finding the 5x4.5 wheels made for your bolt pattern

Search man, the most logical for sizes is a d44. The widths are similar to stock. If you want wide, go with something outta an f250. Steal both front and rear and ratios, bolt patterns and widths will all be the same.

Check out the SAS section, there has been a couple members that have done the swap.
