Default Stock wheel size?

I have a 96 f150 eddie bauer eddition, its 4x4. As far as i know it has the stock wheels on it, I know they are 15 inch wheels but I'm not sure what the width is. Does anyone know what the width is on these rims?

Thanks for the reply. i forgot to mention that the tires on it now are 235/75R/15 if that changes anything. i was just wondering so when i do all the modifications this summer i needed to know if i had to buy new wheels or not to fit the 35's going on it

dang thats sad news.....there goes another $500.....i thought i could get away with 8 inch wide rims. ive seen a lot of 35 inch tire combos with 15x8 wheels. Am i reading this wrong?

Sweet thanks. Looks like I'll be selling the old tires and wheels then. The wheels are in great condition too. Look like new
