Yes I get it now! my truck would not have had 9.50 x16.5 rims from the factory, the widest factory rims Ford put on 1968 F250 Camper/Special was 8.75 x 16.5! so the 4 that I had sandblasted a painted white are correct, thought I had blown $65.
How about Hubcaps I have 4 but 2 are pretty beat up, anybody know who a good source would be to get some?
Thanks to everyone in helping me clear up my rim question.

Left: 1967/72 F250/350 Camper Special: Column left, 7th from last and 2nd from last entries.
Right: TYPE 4 is the hubcap that Camper Specials came with, but there are two different types of these hubcaps.
1967/77 F250/350 Camper Specials, 1969/74 E300's, 1975/77 E250/350's and most other 1967/77 F250/350's used outie hubcaps.
Outie: So called because the hubcap snaps over tabs located on the outside of the wheels center section.
But some 1967/69 F250/350's came with innie hubcaps.
Innie: So called because the hubcap snaps onto tabs located on the inside of the wheels center section.
Innie hubcaps will not fit outie wheels and vice versa.

Bobark, you still aren't understanding. 8.75 and 9.50 are tire sizes not wheel/rim sizes. Wheel/rim size is 6.75 wide. The diameter of the wheel/rim is 16.5". Look at Number dummy's list or Jeff's first post.
