Does anyone know the lug pattern for my 1992 Ford F250 4X4. These are 16" wheels with 8 lugs, and the truck has the heavy duty (C5?) rear axle with the centers that stick out. I would like to replace the OEM steel wheels with something that looks nicer. Thanks in advance.

 

I believe the eight-bolt pattern is the same in all US-made trucks. The problem might be with getting a center cutout that will clear the full floating axle ends.

Thanks. I had found another post telling how to measure wheel lug dimensions and had measured mine at 6.5". Now when I locate some possible replacement wheels, all I have to check is the size of the center hole where the front and rear axles come through.

Thanks again.

 

Almost all aftermarket wheels have a 5" diameter opening. Older wheels like my 70's turbins have 4-7/8" hole.

 

Thanks Tim. I would like to find some OEM wheels for my old Ford but may eventually go with aftermarket rims if I can't find Ford rims.

Regarding your photos, I like your Cub Cadet and Sears tractors. Cub Cadets are built by IH aren't they? I am into small tractors myself. I have an old 1964 (IH) Farmall LP 560 with a JD loader for dirt work and a Craftsman GT 3000 (23 hp Kohler) for light mowing. However, my real "baby" is my restored 1952 Ford 8n which I use for brush mowing and leveling work. These old 8Ns are fun tractors and I have had several. Right now though just to keep me busy, I am restoring a 1984 Ford model 1710 compact tractor. Not near the quality of the 8N but it is supposed to be a workhorse. We shall see.

Interestingly I also had a Polaris ATV, although not near the bike your 4X4 is. Mine was a 1990 Sport 400. Yes, a yuppie's bike. I took it in trade for an old IH winch truck that I had. However, a few fast trips across the pasture convinced me that an old retiree like myself should stick to the beaten and paved pathes if we have the option.

Your photos seem to indicate you may be located in western PA? I'm located in west Texas. Western PA is indeed interesting and beautiful country. My family and I lived in eastern MD for almost a decade during the 80s and 90s and have camped in southwestern PA.

Thanks again for the information.
