I have a chance to buy a nice set of 18" wheels with tires. They came off an 05 2wd Ranger. Will these fit on my 2009? I understand the bolt pattern is the same 114.3=4.5. My major concern is will the rear wheel drive wheels work on the front wheel drive Escape? I'm not sure about the offset. I'm going to try to fit them this weekend so I can check all that then. Thanks, Mike

I guess I'll answer my own question. Yes they fit, although the back spacing is very wrong. They stick out about an inch and a half farther than they should. Just in case someone else wants to know.

Hmm. Must be what one of the guys at work here used to have on his Escape. 10 hole chrome wheels. It looked a little strange imo. But maybe that's because they are offset and a front driver doesn't normally have that type of wheel on it.
