2002 Explorer XLS
I did a search on this forum, but couldn't find an answer. I was wondering if anyone knew the specs on the 16"wheels that are on the 2002 Explorer 4 door/2wd. Like bolt pattern, offset, and center bore.
Most aftermarket companies list applications for up to the 2001 model year, so did Ford change specs? Or has most companies not updated their charts?
Thanks in advance for any help you can give!

I didn't look myself yet, but you can find it on your drivers side door, open it and there is a sticker that shows the information.
 






Actually, the sticker only shows tire size and air pressure recommendations, and nothing about the wheel. I looked at the rim, and it is stamped 16x7-then there is a stamp that says 44mm.
I need to know if that is the offset, does anyone here know for sure? I know it's not the center bore, as that is about 70-72mm.
I have someone who has some rims with a 40mm offset, and I want to know if they will work on my 2002!
(I can't test mount them, as I'm in California, and the rims are currently in Miami!)
 






Not sure,when you find out though tell me! I need to know this information myself.
 






Well, here's the stock specs on the steel wheels for the 2002 Explorer (Couretsy of a VERY nice parts guy over at Colley Ford in Glendora,Ca. who pulled one off of an XLS right there and confirmed the measurements with calipers and ruler!)
16x7 Rim
+44mm offset
70.2mm Center Bore
5x4.5 Lug Pattern (aka 5x114.3)
Hope this helps someone out in the future!
