any help is greatly appreciated

5 by 4.5 rims will work.

Boneyard for a set of 16" tri spoke chrome Explorer wheels. They were an option in 96'. Mine has them.

Later 2nd gen Explorers had the same "teardrop" style wheel that yours probably has, but in a 16" variety.

Here is a 16" wheel (Rangers also used them):

Here is the 15" wheel:
