Wheels

What year did Ford change the back spacing on the Superduty. I have a chance to pick up some wheels from a 2004. Will they fit my 2001?

I'm thinking it was 03 or 04 the later model wheels will rub your front leaf springs more than likely

Question



Thanks.
Anybody else got an opinion? I was thinking it was 2005 when the new suspension system was introduced and the wheel design was changed.

Anybody know where I can get this info? I need to call the lady about the wheels. Thanks in advance.

The change occured in 05 when they went to coil sprung front suspension. Leaf packs require more negative offset to clear larger tires.
