Default Bolt pattern???

Hey everyone. I am looking at snow tires and wheels on Craigslist. Which bolt pattern fits these trucks? I saw one that was "5 x 4.5" off a Jeep. Will that fit? Thanks

Edit: Will 225/75R15 fit without an issue? I have 235/75R15 on there now and I have used 215/75R15 and 235/70R15 in the past. Tire experts willing to give their professional opinion?

OP is 4wd but 2wd BS is 4".

Also: Tire size calculator

225/75/15 will be roughly half an inch shorter and 0.393700787 inches narrower than what you have on there now.

What was your truck originally equipped with? If it's different than what you're running now, your speedometer will be slightly off. The website I linked allows you to plug in stock size vs. what you have to tell you the difference between the two.

That difference seems like nothing since these current tires seem oversized as is. Does half an inch make a difference in terms of traction, handling, performance, etc?

The truck was originally equipped with 235/70R15 according to the door label.

I realize the speedometer is slightly off already by about 1-2mph according to the GPS. Not much at all.

I will check out the comparrison site. Thanks for the tip.
