How can I find out what the bolt pattern is on a 2011 F-250 super duty?

 

Hola, and Welcome to FTE!

8 on 170mm, same as every other SRW Super Duty. Factory backspacing and front suspensions were changed in 2003, wheels smaller than 17 inches won't work on trucks after 2005. All factory wheels are hub-centric, so watch out for lug centric aftermarket wheels, they use acorn lug nuts and not the factory flanged nuts.

 

Thank you very much.

 

The change was between '04 and '05 with the change from leaf to coil front suspension, no changes in '03. But yes, everything '05+ fits the same.

 

Dang it, I got my years out of wack. 03 was when the 6.0 started, 05 was front end update, no excuses play like a champion

 

So '05+ wheels will fit '99 to '04? But not vice versa?

 

No, other way around. 05+ wheels run closer in-board, and are more likely to cause rubbing the the leaves. 04 and earlier wheels (only if they're over 16") would probably work on an 05+ but will have a wider track width

 

Yeah, the earlier wheels, and only those 17" and larger, will stick out about 2" more on the '05+ trucks. The '05+ wheels will fit on the earlier trucks, but they will sit in too far and look goofy. Also, wheel spacers are NOT advised, except maybe if you use the machined steel ones, and those cost almost as much as a set of wheels.
