I didn't have to grind anything they bolted right on

Are the studs in the rear not long enough?

Are you sure they are Ford Ranger rims?

What did you need to grind?

Are the offsets the same or similar enough where they will not rub while turning? (reviving old thread)

What ranger rims are you talking about? All rangers have the same bolt pattern as the jeep. But there are several different rims that came on the 4 generations.

My friend has 94 ranger and his back rims would not fit his 89 jeep with a D35, he had the same with the rear drum part not fitting through the rim...Tj
