I'll be out in the shop this weekend and I'll try to get more info and take some pictures.

Ok, I just went out to the shed and took some pictures, but turns out I may not have all the information I thought I could get (sucks getting old!).

My '67 F250 came with some Mopar rims (note the pentastar logo), but I can't get a part number off of them as there's too much, uh..."stuff'...in the way (packed-up for winter) for me to remove one and have a look at the backside.

From the front tire (and all the ..."stuff"....):

Tires are 235/85R16's, and there are DOT markings on the wheels, but I don't think they'll help much.

From the back tire:

I'm planning on swapping these wheels over to my '68 next spring, as they came with the "correct" hub caps as well, and I really don't dig the look of these aluminum rims.

Not sure if this helps, but it's about all I can get until the spring.

Your Dodge wheels are outie wheels where he has the rare innie wheel hub caps. They are smaller and mount on the ring close to the lug nuts, not outside.
