Factory wheel interchange
Curious... will the factory 5-lug rims from 1990's F150's and full size Broncos fit 1970's F100/F150's? I am helping my nephew get a F100 dentside, and it currently has dog-dish hub-caps on it. Not so cool for a teenager... so thought maybe a set of those factory 1990's wheels would dress things up a bit.
Anyone have pics of their dentside with newer style factory rims?

Same as 1969/74 E200 & E100/150 from 1975 thru 2014.
F150's went to metric wheels in 1997, but no E100/350 (Econoline) of any year has metric wheels.

Just as a double check, I can take the spare from my 150 and make sure it fits the 100 once it arrives. I've seen some Ford OEM wheels on ebay that I like, but I'll be shopping around to compare prices for a few months before making the buy.
Those wheels certainly do dress up your trucks!

Styled steel and aluminum wheels were introduced in 1977 for F100/150 & E100/150, Bronco got 'em in 1978.
The hubcaps (Ford called them ornaments) attach to the wheels with 3 screws and anchors. The holes for the screws/anchors are within the bolt circle pattern.

Wasn't it the Chrysler? Ricardo was a man of refinement...
