1997 F350, crew cab long box, 7.3L power stroke. So I am finding the old 16 inch tire size hard to locate used anymore. Thought if I am going to upgrade to new tires, maybe I should look at a set of factory take off's with rims from a newer F350. I hear Ford changed bolt patterns shortly after but have no way to confirm to when and what year works on the old style so here I am with a question.

Up to what year F350 will fit my 1997 Bolt pattern? Lots of deals with rims and tire combos on the newer stuff so thanks for the info. It's appreciated.

OBS = 8 x 6.5" lug spacing

SuperDuty body stye = 8 x 170mm lug spacing



Inexpensive newer take offs seem to be everywhere…. I picked up a set of 6.5" to 170mm adapters just to keep in case I got stranded and needed tire options. Not a long term solution mind you, just to get out of a bind.

 

What LeoJr said. '97 was the last year that used that bolt pattern. Nothing newer will fit.

 

You can use Ford VAN wheels all the way up till 2014. They kept the 8 on 6.5 pattern

 

Thanks all, forgot about this post. Too bad, lots of nice newer wheel and tire take offs always for sale. Did they ever make a "nice" van wheel lol Good info.




Thanks again

 

Yes. Alocoa made the SAME wheels for the vans as they did the 94-97 trucks
