Going from 14" to 15" question.

Hi, new here, and very happy I found this forum.

I am planning to go from 14" wheels on a 1993 Ford Ranger, to 15" wheels. A friend has some 15" wheels which I tried one of them on the truck (back wheel) and the bolt pattern is great. My concern is that the center hole is apprx 1/8th bigger than the wheel on the truck. The wheel is stamped GM, but I have no clue what it came off.
If anyone could tell me if the center hole being bigger will cause a problem it would be greatly appreciated! I will check the front wheel tomorrow in case of a spacing problem.

Thank you,
Thunder

shouldn't cause a problem, the wheels are lug centric meaning it will use the lug nuts to center the wheel on the axle, do you have a pic of these wheels? i didn't think GM wheels would fit a ranger
