2011 wheels on 2016 ?
Are there any issues with putting rims from a 2011 F350 on a 2016 F250? I have a camper on my truck about 98% of the time. I'm not overloaded but I'm on the ragged edge of the weight on my back tires on my stock F250. I would be a little more comfortable with 1 ton wheels and tires with an extra 600 lbs of available weight capacity on the rear axle. I can purchase a complete set of excellent condition alloy rims and very good tires from an F350 that is being upgraded to 19.5" Rickson wheels. I can get the 4 alloy rims, 1 steel rim and the 5 tires for about $800 dollars. The price seems fair, the tires are good for at least another 20K miles.
My question is this. Are the bolt patterns the same? 1 local dealer says yes, another says no. I checked a couple of retailers and the wheels for F250 or F350 have the same part number on one site. Just checking before I make the commitment.
thanks

Agree. I just sold the alloy wheels off my 2012 K/R. The buyer sent me a picture the very next morning, of them mounted on his '16.

Exactly what I was hoping to hear, Thank you very much.
17" to 18", no concerns with gearing with a marginally larger tire/wheel. I have 4.30 gears. Tire rating will be 3600 vs 3250. That, and the unsprung weight will be reduced by over 100 lbs, never a bad thing.

Pretty sure anything from 99 to 16 stock rim wise should fit. They should all be a 170 x 8 bolt pattern. However, I am one to believe in keep tires to the generation of the truck if going with stock. My truck has 18 inch Lariat rims on it. The truck had 17 inch 5 spoke. I found the rims on Craigslist. I just needed to replace the rubber on the truck before using them as the tire were worn out. Congrats finding the 4.30s used. That is a rare bird. Most order them with 4.30s and a few are installing them after the fact.
