Weld Rims

16 will fit i had 16's on my 04 F-250 CC.. I still have the wheels for sale also.. Have ot take pics if your interested. Thanks

05 up have to have a minimum of 17 if I remember correctly. I have 16.5 on mine and I wish I would have gotten 17s. 16.5s are so hard to find tires for. Very few companies make tires for 16.5 inch wheels now.

ya, our 79 pulling truck has 16.5 steel wheels on it. We run the Truxus STS's on it. Great pulling tire. BFG TKO's also have a 16.5. There are actually a few differant brands we have run on that truck.

wasn't WELD bought out by AR about a year ago?

[Patrick]

that is correct.

All Superdutys 99-08 that are singe rear wheel models use the 8x170mm bolt pattern.
Old body style(OBS) is 8x6.5

The 05-08's have larger brakes so the backspacing is different than the 99-04's.


In 05 ...engineers to upsized brake rotors by 5 percent, to 347 mm in front and 340 mm in rear.

Other improvements include larger calipers for both the F-250 and F-350. The front calipers have twin 60 mm pistons - up 11 percent from 2004 - for better braking feel. Rear calipers have twin 48 mm calipers on F-250 and twin 54 mm pistons on F-350 dual-rear-wheel models.





BACK SPACING

99-04......4"
05-07.......18"and 20"(from the factory) have 5.80" BS, and the 17" have 5.50"



00-04s came with 16s (unless it was a Harley Edition, they had 18s)...they don't clear the calipers on the 05-08s.
A 04 HD wheel would fit on a 05-08 since they were 18s, but they had less backspacing so they sit further out of the wheel wells on 05-08s.

05-08s fit on the 99-04, just rub on the leaf springs and sit further under the truck than they do on the 05-08.



Offset is the location of the wheel mounting surface in relation to the true center of the wheel......normally in mm.
Negative does move it inward.

So....

A 20x10 wheel with a 4.5" BackSpace will have approx -24 or -25mm offset.
A 20x12 wheel with a 4.5" BackSpace will have approx -51mm offset.

There was a guy selling a set last week on craigslist: chicago classifieds for jobs, apartments, personals, for sale, services, community, and events.
The listing is dead but i have seen it repeatedly for the last few months. Keep checking there.
