Give me your opinion

Well my girlfriend just bought a 99 ranger 2wd with the 4.0 and 355 L/S, anyways she hates the way the rims look on her truck but she likes the 5 spoke mazda rims. Her dad owns a junk yard and we talked to him and he gave her the rims off a wrecked mazda. Now the tires are worn out on 'em so I took and had my old 30x9.5x15 put on them. Question is how do you think they will look on the ranger as I have never seen these rimes on a ranger and second question is should I steal her old rims from her for my truck?
The truck in question is the white one next to mine

I put them on last night and I like the way it looks. The rims just make the truck look better.
