I do not know what years fit but I have a set of 4 I'd like to get out of my garage. I live in IL, so if you are remotely close we could work something out. They are 15x7, have no rust and no bends.

OE ford wheels wont fit without having the center machined out to 4 1/2 inches. Ford does have the same bolt pattern so aftermarket wheels do fit.

How would you go about machining out the center holes? Just use a hole saw or what?

Also, nobody has said what year of Ford rims work yet.

Most Ford 1/2 ton  truck AfterMarket Rims
The Stock ones centers are too small.
Jeep CJs (what ever years had the 5 on 5 1/2 boltpattern)
I don't know heeps, they all look alike from my house.
81-93 Dodge 1/2 ton Trucks

Try looking in the salvage yards for Ford Bonco (fullsized!) aftermarket wheels.

They are the spoke type and the center hole is large enough to work.  I have 5 on my truck.

Also:  do a search for wheels for a comprehensive list of interchangable wheels for the Samurai/TracKick.

Hope that helps!

I was under the understanding that Ford rims don't need modification as long as they're the 4WD rims, and not the 2WD rims. I'm sure mine are from a Ford F150 4x4, but they look similar to a Jeep CJ wheel.

I belive its 97 and older and even the 4x4 option the center holes are too small. I had a set of wheels off a ford that I had the centers cut out on a lathe. Again I am talking Factory wheels. Aftermarket Ford wheels bolt right on.

The FACTORY rims I have from a Ford truck have the proper hole size and bolt pattern.
