Wheels

Hey guys. Just bought a 78 f100. I heard the f100 of those years had a 5x4.5 bolt pattern, and the f150s had 5x5.5. Is this true? I have some old school turbine rims around, but they are 5x5.5. Anyone have any advice on this matter?

I am pretty sure the f100 has the same bolt pattern as the 150.

Not that I even have known. The wheels on my 78' F100 are off 95' F-150. I have personally never known of a Ford full size with a five lug pattern of anything other then 5x5.5.
