Yes, as long as the '17 F-350 is a SRW truck of course.

Yes, again as long as the F-350 is a SRW. The big rim change happened with the changeover to coil front springs on the 4X4 rigs in model year '05. Earlier trucks wanting to run later rims require spacers to fit properly, and later trucks wanting to run early rims will have brake clearance issues as the minimum wheel diameter went to 17" in '05 due to larger brakes, nearly all pre '05 wheels were 16". The exception to that rule is if dealing with the rare-ish '04 (only year for them) Super Duty Harley, Lariat, K-R and SVT 18" wheels, but they will stick out almost 2" farther than stock wheels on a late model truck due to the different geometry.
