Default 16" rims (R16 tires) on 95 Blazer?

My friend has a full set of tires 16" on 16" rims that he took off of his Ford Explorer before he sold it and I was wondering if they will fit/bolt onto a 95 Blazer.

You'd have to find out the bolt pattern. I don't know the Ford one off hand, sorry.

I googled it, and I don't think they will fit..but just double check and see what bolt pattern is on the explorer. As mentioned about ^^ just because its 5 bolt doesn't mean it will fit.

Ya, from what I see the Explorer is 5x4.50 so looks like they will not fit.

Well give a try anyways when we go to change the oil and new front pads.

We are heading up to his place on Monday to do the oil and brakes as I will be leaving BC in about a week and a half to head to NS. So not really much time to find an adapter. Trying to see how much I can get some rims for back home in case I just buy the tires.

Actually I think you'll find when you try them on, they'll fit, but not as they should. If you use them, you're looking at major repairs later down the road.

If they did not fit perfectly I would not use them. Sorta sucks that I could get near new condition 4 tires w/rims for $150-$200
