wheel help please

I have a 2005 F250 and want to buy some aftermarket 18x10 wheels and tires from a guy that had a 2001 F250. I know the bolt pattern is the same and I know that you cant swap the stock wheels on those trucks because of the backspacing but what about aftermarket ones? The BS on the new ones is 5 3/4" ..... What do you think? Thanks

it is due to larger brakes why they won't clear, an 18-inch would fit fine, its worth taking a look. Not saying this is gospel, but just my .02
