questions on wheels

[ljn21]

I have searched around on the forums but didn't find definitive answers to my questions:

1. Will Ford Edge/Lincoln MKX rims fit on my 2004 EX (4x4)
2. What is the offset and backspacing of my stock 17" rims (its 4x4, Eddie Bauer)? I saw the thread about how to measure but thought I could save myself the work of pulling a wheel off to measure...
3. Is there a list on here or somewhere else to find out specs like offset/backspacing on stock rims...say I am looking at Ebay and find a set of rims I like from an Edge but don't know the stock sizes and want to compare to my own stock rims
4. how about a list of which years/models rims fit which years/models?

I am looking to upgrade my stock EB wheels to some chrome or chome clad rims and would like to stay OEM - I like the look of the Ford Edge wheels or the silver sparkle Mazda CX-9 rims but don't want to have them stick out to far or be to close to the suspension componenets, etc.....


Thanks for the help!

well ford uses the same 5x5.5 (or is it 4.5?) bolt patern on just about all of thier vehicles as far as i know. im 98% sure those edge rims will fit. as for your other q's idk.

standard ford is 5 on 4.5 or metric equivalent on smaller vehicles (including explorer) and 5 on 5.5 for the fullsize


however, i have seen newer expeditions with 6 lug rims.....
