will this spare work?
Found in my garage, all black steelie, its a 16" but it has a ford logo stamped in the metal and its 5 lug, my gut tells me its be standard ford 5x4.5 but how can I be sure? It has K4 16x7J pressed in the rim too.

The rusty rim os the stock one and this one looks identical except for backspacing. Any wheel gurus. Please and thank you

Can't see them because they are on facebook but just try it and see. Or measure it, either of those are easy.

I can't see it being a problem on the back as long as the bolt pattern is the same, but I'd try it on the front to make sure.

The first one appears to be a crown vic police car wheel. If so it is 16x7. I am using one as a spare right now.

They may work but I don't have a facebook so I can't see them.

This! Although even if they don't work on the front you could still use it as a spare. You would just have to do more work depending on where you need the spare.

He said they were 16x7 in the OP.
