06 wheels on a 99???

I have the factory '06 18" Lariat wheels and tires.
Will they work on my '99???

(The '99 has a leveling kit on it.)

I have heard something about different backspacing or something.
Thanks!

True, backspacing is too high. The coil spring trucks have a 5.5" back space. Your OEM wheels have a 4.25" backspace.

I have been running 09 Lariat wheels and tires on my 03 for a year. I wouldn't be able to go to a wider tire though.

I had the same 06 lariat wheels on my 04 for awhile. Fit fine. Backspacing is different, and they would rub about a half turn from full lock. I would make my turns just a hair wider than normal and I didn't have a problem with them.
