Ive always loved that style rims,they would look great on a ranger ,but be careful the jeeps have the same bolt pattern,but the hub(center) is often different.So fitment sometime is hit or miss.Back in the day they were called Gamblers,lamborginis,or apollos.

im guessing that 5.5" of backspace would rub ..? I bought 32x11.5x15 tires for my sisters ranger (2001 4x4) but she's sitting on 16 inch wheels and i need to get some chepo rims to put them on and tought these were a good deal. but if they will rub i will just go buy the other ones that are a bit more expensive but have 4" of backspace.

Well turns out my sister prefers the black rims so were going with a 15x8 with a 4.5" BS.

Almost the same as what fletch12518 is getting but they are pro-comp 97 series
