'11 Sport 2x4...will 4x4 rims fit?

I have the torsion front suspension on my '11 2x4. I've been told that 4x4 rims will fit, but I seem to recall that there is a difference in the center bore, or something. I know the bore is 70.3, but I've been lead to believe there are other differences. Can someone please educate me? Thanks.

It would only be an issue if your truck was a 98-00 4wd looking for 00.5+ wheels.
They will fit fine

You will need to check the specs on the specific wheel you want. The hub is bigger on a 4x2. The factory 4x4 sport wheels will not fit on a 4x2.

Thanks guy! I tried a wheel from a 4x4 (aftermarket) and the center bore is the same for about a half inch into the wheel, then the bore tapers in...so the wheel is about a half inch short of sitting flat. Spacers might fix it, but I'll pass on the wheels.
