Wheel Woes!

Can anyone tell me what the smallest dia. wheel I can fit on my truck (01 F150 scab 4X4) I want to go w/ 16 " wheels, but I'm not sure they will fit.

I suppose you could even go 15" except as far as I know they dont make a 5 hole that would fit. If you need some 16" i have a few sets that I could part with.

15" won't fit because of front caliper clearance. I've heard of people grinding on the caliper, but that's asking for trouble. Plus even if you got it to clear then you would have no room for weights. Stick with 16's or 16.5.

you can only go 15s with a truck that has brake drums in the rear the disks are too big. Eagle makes about 5 kinds of rims i have the 1189s they look pretty good
