Question Rim Interchangability?

Hi All,

Does anyone know if the current model F250, F350, Excursion stock rims will fit on my '73 F350 SCS? Are the lug pattern, hub size, and offset the same?

I tried to search for this information first, but couldn't find anything. The tires on my truck are getting close to being worn out, and was thinking of replacing them with the stock wheels of the current Heavy Duty model trucks. Would like to keep it all "Ford" stuff.

My Truck's Info:

'73 F350 Super Camper Special
390FE Engine
C6 Automatic Transmission
Dana 70 rear axle (I think)
4x2

Thanks in advance!

The new model wheels will not fit older vehicles. I think that the change for the 8-lug wheels happened in the 99 model year.
