wheel size

Hi you've probably guessed that the 15 in the tire size is for 15" wheel . so now you need a 15" rim with the correct bolt pattern for your five bolt hubs . i got my spare from a local auto wrecker for ten bucks. just measure the bolt pattern (distance between studs, try this link).my trailer hubs had a ford bolt pattern 4.5" i think. the easy way out is to buy a multifit rim from an auto store or wallymart etc. they are about 40.00 up here . hope this helps
