I've been researching different wheel bolt patterns from small compact cars. And some have 5x4.5 patterns with slightly smaller bore centers 67mm compared to my 70.3mm center bore (that I can open up with a file) but the stud holes are only 12mm instead of the 1/2'' that is .7mm smaller. Do you think there would be enough play in those wheels to slid onto a 1/2" stud? I really don't want to look at mustang wheels, because of their size. Short of me spending a day at the junk yard can anyone point me in a direction. I will consider some sort of adapter or even fitting new lug bolts in my hubs if that would work. thanks guys. p.s. I just putt around the city and want to transform my ranger into a mileage king.

 

what you should be more worried about is offset and back spacing.

 

welp I wasn't gonna worry about that until I found a wheel that will clear the 1/2" studs. guess Ill have to do it the hard way.
