Will 16 inch 8 lug wheels off of a 2000F250 mount on a 1968 F250 highboy?

Pretty sure those are metric, so no.

John is correct, 99-up Super Dutys are 8-170 metric pattern so no go.

Thanks for the feedback. So to be sure truck years 98 and down the wheels should work on the 68 correct?

Sounds about right, test fit front & rear before you lay any money down, regardless of who sez what.

Yep. Do a test fit. For some reason 16's did not fit over the front drums of my '68 F250 but fit the rears fine.

I just had this problem last week on a 72 F250 Highboy, had the wrong offset and the tie rod ends hit the back of the wheels. my dealer was great and exchanged them for wheels with more negative offset. TEST FIT for sure.
