Default Will stock 15" sedan rims fit on my 07 HB for snow tires?

Hi
I have an 07 s touring HB and I have a good set of 15" snow tires that I would like to use. Was thinking I could get a set of 15" sedan wheels steel or alloy. Will they bolt up and clear the brakes or do the sedans have smaller calipers?

thanks

No, 15's donot fit the North American HB's. The brakes are too big. 16's are the smallest you can go.

... And YES, I'm following (stalking) you around. As a mod here, it's my job.

It's a running gag (stalking) icspots started between GM9921andme. I'm just playin' along... taking it to the next level.
And yes, I enjoy being a mod on this site. It's so laid back compared to the other I moderate for.

Try going over to FTW with its 161,000 members Richard
Don't need the 15's, the F-150 has 18's and the Explorer's 15's are way bigger [8D]

We try, there is a great bunch of knowledgeable people on this site.

And as a plus, I moderate on a Ford Truck site so I can answer Questions about Ford Trucks also
