just wondering if y'all know whether or not 15in. rims will fit on our trucks? i've heard several people say no, but i have a friend that has 15x10 on his '97 F-150, and discount tire also shows several 15in rims for our trucks. any opinions will be greatly appreciated!!

J-Rock, this has been a widely debated issue. One side thinks that because of the size of the brakes that 15's Will not fit. Well let dispose of that rumor. While SOME 15's might not fit SOME Will. I now personally that I've seen 15" Prime wheels on a F150 4x4.
Look At it this way: Our trucks have a unique bolt pattern that ONLY F150's and Expy's have ( 5 on 135 ) SO if a wheel Manufacter makes a wheel in a 15 with a 5 on 135 bolt pattern then it HAS ( And I reitterate HAS ) to fit our trucks. Because if not,,,,,,What would it fit???
They'd be making wheels that dont fit anything.
