This wheel matches this wheel = F3TZ1007B / 1993/96 F150.

Look thru the member galleries, or swing by your local Ford dealer and ask to see the following:

1990/2002 Ford Light Truck Parts Catalog / Text / Section 10 / Page 45 / Type 30.

American Racing, Eagle, and Ultra all offered that style of wheel starting in the late 70's/early 80's timeframe. They are all discontinued now and considered "old school", even though they are not as old as a lot of other "old school" wheels which ARE still being produced. I guess they didn't rank as high on the popularity totem pole which lead to their eventual demise. Unfortunately, you will have to keep your eyes on all sources of classifieds or, with any luck, salvage yards. Otherwise, you may have to start with a whole new set of something. Wish you good luck in either case.
