00_XJ Posted December 4, 2008 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 I found some 20 inch rims that I really like but the problem is my bolt pattern is 5x114.3 and the rims are 5x115. Obviously I know 114.3 does not equal 115 but I've been searching and some say it will bolt right on with no problems since rims are manufactured with some give. Some others say it is a safety issue. I've searched for lug converters but can't find any in the size I need and I also heard those weren't good either. What are your thoughts?

now534 Posted December 4, 2008 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 as a ranger owner myself i would personally find rims that are 5 x 114.3. 5 x 115 may fit but its not wise.. hit up www.rangerpowersports.com/forum and ask in the wheels and tires section to get a good answer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

00_XJ Posted December 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 pics of truck? i roll with 17's on my ranger I don't have any pictures of the truck on my computer but it's pretty much stock because I just got it a few months ago as my beater truck, but now I'm starting to get into the mini truckin' thing. I was originally looking for 17 or 18 inch rims because I personally hate big rims on small trucks, but I don't wanna pass up this deal that I'm getting Quote 2000 Jeep Cherokee -DC Audio -Memphis -Audioque -SecondSkin -Pioneer -KnuKonceptz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
