Wheels
I'm currently building a 93 f150 and i'm looking for some nice chrome rims. I'm looking for 15 inch wheels, 12 inches wide, 5x5.5 lug pattern. I haven't had any luck finding places that sell rims like this. Any websites you know of or any stores would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

it depends on the look you are going for. On some trucks those cheap looking black painted wheels look a lot better then chrome. But if your into chrome that much, that's fine.

10" is generally the tire manufacturers recommendation for a 12.5" wide tire. A lot of people prefer going down to 9" or even 8" (I think for better rim protection and better bead retention). A few people like going to wider wheels for the look. Personally I really wouldn't recommend it, but then again, I don't like that look. It's your truck and your money, go ahead and do what you want with it.

Not at all. F-250/350 of all years (except the '97/'98 F-250 not HD) have had 8 lugs. The bolt pattern changed in '99 (as White 97 xlt noted above) but all we 8 bolt. 5 bolt would be F-150 (or F-100 back when they existed)
