Title: Explorer wheel compatibility
Post by: glock-coma on October 01, 2014, 02:46:01 PM
Anyone know if 2011 explorer wheels will fit on a SHO?
Found a guy on Craig's list selling 17" explorer steelies with blizzaks for a great price.

Pretty sure you're good to go. I was looking at the newer 20" polished Explorer wheels to swap onto my MKS and they are the exact same dimensions, offset, etc. as my OEM MKS 20" wheels, just different design.

Just checked the size comparison website.
Think these would still work?
My donut spare is a 17".

Should work.  Take a Jack and Jack stand and test fit one on the front before you buy

Yea the only problem you might have is clearing the calipers but then again I think the Explorer shares our caliper designs. What steelies are these, Interceptor? I would check the offset on the wheels and make sure they're OEM, and if so you're good.

They're not interceptor wheels just plain jane steels w/o hub caps.
This is a pic from the ad.

If they were mounted on his ride with no issue at one point then I would pull the trigger and get them.
