Going to be droppng the Ranger with the DJM 4/5 kit and a friend has some repro FR500 wheels he picked from latemodelrestoration, they are 17x9s front and 17x10.5 rears and I would be getting them for cheap. Does anyone know if they fit without any spacers or would spacers be needed???????? If anyone has any pictures I would really appreciate it.

Also if anyone has any recommendations on tire size that would be awesome.

10.5 WHEEL SPECS

Diameter 17"
Width 10.5"
Lugs 5
Offset +27 mm.
Backspacing 6.84 in.
Bolt Circle 4.5 in.

9" WHEEL SPECS

Diameter 17"
Width 9"
Lugs 5
Offset +24 mm.
Backspacing 5.85 in.
Bolt Circle 4.5 in.

From the research I did it appears I will need spacers at least for the front due to the center of the FR500 wheel being smaller than the Rangers. If that's the case does anyone know of any good spacers that don't cost an arm and a leg?

What's the backspacing on the FR500's?
