rims

I know that this has been covered before, but I can't find the previous thread. Anyone know what rims I could put on my '69 F250 that would look original (use my stock dog-dish hub caps)? I'm still running my 16.5's but I'm going to need new tires soonish. What other years are compatible with my truck? I'd like to run 16's. Thanks.

I'm looking to run 16's. Can't find 16.5's anymore. What year 16" rims from Ford will work on my truck?

I've seen the wheels off of the 92' 96' superduty, those 16x7/16x8 (whichever it would be) that are chromed, they're similar to the Alcoas, anyway I think the cutoff is 96'/97' for 8 lug wheels that fit.

I just bought a set of 16 X 7 X 16" rims on ebay for $76 plus $30 shipping. They were off a 1992 F350. The nice thing about them is they were power coated which makes for a nice finish. I agree that the cutoff is somewhere in the late 1990s. I had 16.5s on the rear and rusty 16s on the front. It is nice to get everything the same.
