Tires and rim question PLEASE HELP!!

Hi I have a 2010 ranger 2x4 and I have found some tires their 31 -13.5 but they are a 6 bolt pattern (mine are obviously 5 bolt)....they are SOOO nice and would look amazing on my truck ....is their anyway I could make these tires work or am I beat! ...I have stock tires on my truck right now but I want that wider tire look for my truck because it just looks so much nicer on these trucks....does anyone have any other tips that I could do to get that look?

Google: wheel adapters 5 lug to 6 lug

As you probably know all 5 lug are not the same size pattern, same for 6 lug, so you need to know what the 6 lug wheels came off of to get that dimension

Adapters are fairly thick, 2 inches at least

I believe Rangers are Hub centric, so the spacer/adapter is centered by fitting tightly over the hub, the lug nuts just hold the wheel on.
Other vehicles/wheels may be Lug centric, meaning lug nuts center the wheel on the hub when tightening them

You would need to measure the back spacing of the new wheels to see how far out they would be with the spacers you chose.
Also to see if you will have clearance when turning.

Look here for tire size and Rangers: https://www.ranger-forums.com/wheels...re-size-20047/
