00 Powerstroke 4x4, welcome to FTE.

"They will bolt up but the offset is different."
You answered your own question. The tires will stick out further from the truck.

You won't "need" anything.

Late model (2005 and later) rims do have a different backspace than the previous years. If you want to put late model rims on an earlier truck you will need 2" hubcentric Spacer$, the newer rims have MORE backspacing so without the spacers the new rims will sit too far inside your wheelwells.
I think redford got a little mixed up on which way you were going........
