Default Explorer wheels on ford ranger

Does anyone know if 2011 explorer wheel will fit on a 1988 2wd swb ford ranger? 245x65x17 tires. wheels are 17x7.5 with 5x4.5 lug pattern. center bore is 63.4mm. I know the pattern is the same, but in not sure about the center bore or the back spacing.

Since its 2WD not much may matter with exception the dust covers of the spindles won't let you put the center caps on up front maybe. If so, you can with a 1.00"-1.25" spacer..

The Explorer axles are a little wider so the offsets were different to compensate and still keep the wheels out near the fenders like they should be..

I run a 93' ranger with 04'-05' Explorer (so-called) "Sport wheels"... 1.25" Spacers front and back.
