Well if they are a 5x135mm pattern, you could always try them, but im almost certain they wouldnt fit. Also, what vehicle did you have them for, since these f-150 are the only vehicles that have a 5x135mm pattern?

well then they are like 5x5 or 5x5.5, only the 97+ 1/2 tons had the 5x135 pattern.
So unless you swapped out the drivetrain, then the bolt pattern isnt 5x135mm.
