Bolt circle info for 6-bolt pattern

Hello,
I am looking to upgrade my stock 255/70 tires rims with a set of Keystone black steel rims and 33" Nittos. I am adding a 3" Ready-Lift as well. I am having difficulty establishing what 6-Bolt circle information will fit my 2008 F-150 CC. There are numerous rim patterns that all end in the 16" diameter. A) Can I use a readily available 16 X 9 rim? Will they clear the calipers? B) What is the Bolt-circle info that I need to search for for my truck to keep the Ø17"?

Thanks.
DCN

There is only a very small gap between the rim and brake caliper putting a 16" on 17" may not work
Something to watch fore.

Your Bolt pattern is 6x135mm.
And unless I have been mistaken, a 16" rim will not fit around the caliper.

tylus has a good reputation on FTE. tylus has a good reputation on FTE.
Blanket cover all statement = 16" rims will not fit at all


however, people have made them work...but they required alot of work, some grinding of the calipers and a specialized set of rims.
