i have searched and couldnt find the answer (and im not that web handy i guess). but i always get good responses on here, so here it goes. i need a 5 x 4.5 x 14" wheel for a spare on my boat, and was wondering if any of you know of a car/truck that uses these as a stock wheel. thanks, im being cheap and trying not to buy a brand new wheel for my 1987 boat.

 

i think jeeps use the 5x4.5.. don't know about the 14" though. think they sit at 15" just another idea to look.

 

thank you, that gives me a direction to look in...

 

5 on 4.5 was used on....

Dakotas (87-90)
Ford Rangers
Ford Explorers
Jeep Liberty
Jeep Cherokee ZJ (92-98)
Jeep Wranglers (84-Present)

 

daks are 6 lugs, no?

 

I have two 15" wheels from a wrangler, and I am pretty sure they are 5x4.5. Would that work for you? My father-in-law bought two wheels with tires at a garage sale by my house a few weeks ago. They were off an older Wrangler. He only wanted the tires (which were like new) for his trailers, and was going to throw away the rims. I can tell him to hang onto them if you think you might want them. I can get some pics for you too. If they will work for you, you can have one/both for just the price of shipping (since they were heading to the dump anyway). Let me know if you want measurements and pics.

 

Ah yeah...they are. [:-] Well, from 91 on they are. 90 and older were 5 lug. Durangos are also 6 lug.

 

Silver: I appreciate the offer, and the information is extremely helpful. I kinda need 14" wheels though, to get more sidewall flex aned to help absorb the shock to the boat. its only a single axle trailer. I will definitely be looking for possibly a 14" wrangler or ranger rim if they made them.

 

No prob. Hope you find what your looking for.
