On a 1/2 ton pickup, yes. On a car, no.

Re: 15 " ford wheel bolt pattern
You may have a Mercury wheel. Theirs was somewhere in the neighborhood of 5-1/2" B.C. while Fords had a 4-1/2" B.C.

Re: 15 " ford wheel bolt pattern
As Daves55sedan mentioned, you may have a Mercury wheel. My all stock survivor '51 Merc. has 15 on 5 x51/2 wheels .

Re: 15 " ford wheel bolt pattern
I'm pretty sure all the Mercury cars from 1949 thru '56 had the same 15" wheels with 5-1/2" B.C. And Fords from 1949 thru '56 all had the same 15" wheels with 4-1/2" B.C. Then in 1957 they went to 14" wheels. Ford still kept the 4-1/2" B.C. thru at least '59.
