OK so they look a bit like Rubicon rims, but have 5*4.5 and are ET12.

I cannot figure out what the backspacing would be? I tried a few calculators and think i figured out it's a bit less than 4", is that right? ELI5.

Like this wheel https://goo.gl/images/Pt5Siy

Thanks all.

Et12 = about 4.5" which means it'll rub more than stock because it is a half inch too far in right?

Stock are 5 inches
Ford Ranger and Explorer wheels are either 4 or 4.5 inches of backspacing
Thing to check though is the center bore of the wheel, Ford is much smaller
Ford is 70.3 , JEEPs are 71.6

OK, so that means this will push the face of the wheel outwards by 0.5" - 1" from stock. Cool.

Yes, I was wondering about the centre bore also, thanks Tom! I'll have to get a machine shop bore them out if I can find some nice wheels locally for a couple bucks.
