Rims that fit both Chevy and Ford early 90s trucks?

Anybody know of any Aluminum rims that fit both Chevy and Ford Trucks from 80s through mid 90s?

The Fords bolt pattern is 5x5.5 and the chevys is 5x5.

I found a Pro Comp wheel 15x10 -44m offset that did, but can't seem to locate the rim again online.

Thanks.

I found these Eagle Allows Series 28 that cover both 5x5 and 5x5.5

Anybody know anything about them. I can't seem to find a retailer that carries them. Summit has them in the catalog but as NOT available.

That style hasn't been available for a few years.

I see Summit nor Jegs carry them, but AE lists them on their site and has distributors for it. I do suspect you are right, but I'll need to confirm.

i thought that all of the newer jeep/dodge 4x4s are 5x5, not sure about the rest of the fitment though.

Jeep are 5x5. I have one of them.
I am curious why the OP is looking for a wheel that will fit both bolt patterns.
Here is a link to a bolt pattern guide that is pretty easy to read. Maybe this will help.

The investment in Rims and Tires will be about $1500. My dad has a 96 F150 (5x5.5).. Just want to keep my options open if I ever want to sell the Chevy, I'll likely have a hard time getting much more for the truck because of rims and tires. Rims and tires far exceeding what I paid for my 87 C10 ..

Re: Rims that fit both Chevy and Ford early 90s trucks?

It's often referred to as a uni-lug set-up and let me tell you that it is a nightmare beyond all imagining. I'm tearing the wheels from my truck the first chance I get because of this POS system for fitting rims... It can tak me upwards of 15 minutes to get one (1) [uno] rim on.
