the spacing on a 1/2 ton is 5 on 5.5 inch
I don't believe the car wheels will fit, being a smaller diameter on the spacing.

BUT there was a set of 5 on 5.5 ford white spoke wheels on craigslist a couple days ago for $40. might still be there.

here is a set for $175.00. I don't see the others

No. With Ford trucks having the 5.5" bolt pattern, the only vehicles that have the same are Dodge trucks and Jeeps....oh, and IH Scouts.

the center on ford wheels are different between cars and trucks. a care wheel will fit only on the back of a truck but not on the front because of the larger hub. i've never run on to bolt patterns that havent matched unless the car rim was a smaller car with 15 in rims. then have i seen a smaller bolt pattern.
