Default Stock 5x4.5 - Found rims at 5x5.5 - Will it fit? Quick answer needed!

Hey guys,

I found a PERFECT set of rims/tires, with the rims at 5 x 5.5. What does the 5.5 mean exactly? Is there anything I can to make them fit?

Thanks guys!
Adrian

5.5 is the diameter of the circle the bolt holes are drilled. you can buy adapters but your wheel will stick out another 1.25"(inch and a quarter) per side. now your scrub radious will be off some which puts load on unit bearing. but if your back spacing isn't to far off it'll be fine.
