Rim Help

Having some trouble fining my answer. I am curious to know what the stock bolt pattern is on the stock 99 wheels? I would like to put a spare set of rims on. They are 18x9.5 with a bolt pattern of 5x135. But not sure if they will fit or not without running a spacer.
 












Explorers are 5x114.3mm(4.5"). So the wheels you listed won't fit. But good news is that they WOULD fit that Lightening in your sig lol. 5x135mm is 5x5.5". Ranger, Explorer, Mountaineer, Ford Made Mazda Trucks (ranger look alikes), Jeep Cherokee (XJ), Grand Cherokee (ZJ), older Wranglers, and alot of older cars all use the same 5x114.3mm Lug Pattern btw... Just to give you wheel choices. But remember that offset.
 






Yeah I know they are 04 Lightning rims. I was just have to drill out the holes a little bigger to fit on the Gen. 1 Lightning. But thought it would be cool to put them on the Explorer for a short time while I got the Stock Explorer Rims worked over a little. Oh well, I will find something else when that time comes.
