rim spec question

1997 F150 and 1997 Expedition (16" wheel) have the rim of the following specs:

7Jx16 ET 14, 5x135 mm bolt pattern, M12x1.75 lugs, 87.1 center bore.

Are the rims then 100% interchangeable? Cross-sectional view exactly same? I just want to make sure I can use 97 Expedition brake rotor/caliper/bracket on my 97 F150.

I needed an expert's confirmation. I read conflicting posts about F150 16" rim interfering with the larger caliper & thicker rotor of Expedition. A few reported interference. Others said no interference. What makes the issue murkier is those who reported interference were not sure if they had oem or aftermarket rims. Thank you for the clarification.
