What Wheels Fit F250 From Later Models?

So I bought a 1973 F 250 4x4 4 speed 390
Runs and drives good $1800.00 hope it was a decent deal
It has old rusty white steel wheels
I want to put on a ford factory set from a later model F250
Bolt pattern for mine is 8 on 6.5?
So what year factory stock aluminum wheels will fit?
I know they went metric at one time. I see many 3/4 ton wheels but what year trucks can I look at for direct bolt on?

This forum rocks
Thanks

1961 to 1998 8 on 6 1/2 wheels will fit. Ford went 8 on 177MM in 1999 for the Super Duty.

So a early to mid nighties, I think the 3/4 ton's had some nice factory aluminium rims around that time?

Even 65-09 chebby's 8 on 6 1/2, but ck the center hole size? I think they can be smaller?

61-09 dodge too, but as always ck the center hole size.

F150's went to metric wheels in 1997, F250/350's and F(Super Duty) went to metric wheels in 1999.

But, no Econoline of any year has metric wheels.

Econoline 16" 8 lug wheels on a 6.50" bolt circle: 1969/74 E300 / 1975/2014 E250/350.

The OP truck is a F250 not a F150, all he asked about was F250 rims.... so I did not even think it was worth mentioning what or when F150's changed.
