New guy with bolt pattern question?

Hello all I'm new here as most can already tell. I have a 1989 ranger I'm looking to pick up a new set of wheels for. I'm looking at the cragar soft 8's the bolt pattern for them is 5-4 1/2 with a 4" backspace, My question is what is the bolt pattern for an 89 ranger and will these wheels fit, what would be my perfect backspacer for a 15x7 wheel? Thanks for any help.

5x4.5 is the correct bolt pattern. What size tire are you going to run? I would get 15x8 rims if your running a 10.5 wide tire or up.

I was just gonna run the 235-75-15's for now I have a pretty decent tire I've been running in the same size which has worked great in mud and snow. But I may find myself jumping up to a 31 but I doubt that anytime in the near future I think the 15x7's should be ok for me but I might just buy the 15x8's then I have them for when I upgrade too the bigger tires. Thanks for the help it was greatly appreciated

2 months ago I had a set of Alcoa's for sale, they'd look great on a '89-'92
