Wheel help...

Okay, I have a 1997 Ford F-250 Heavy Duty with stock suspension and I know someone that will give me an awesome deal on a full set of interco super swampers. They are 33x11.50x15 and came off an f 150. The problem is they are on 15 inch 5 lug rims and I have 16 inch 8 lug rims....anyone know where I can get some 8 lug 15 inch wheels?

Check and see what ply they are. If they are only 6 I wouldn't run them.
Check some of the off road forums. Alot of those guys swap in ton axles
