Quick Rim Question Please.....

Will (Factory) Chrome Alloy Wheels from an '04 fit my '01 Superduty?

They are 8x170, but I thought I read somewhere about the studs being different? Thanks

they're the same wheel/offset... they'll work.. 05-07 wheels will not without a serious spacer.

I do believe they changed the rims up abit in 05, so an 04 should work.

yep, with the coil setup, they have a much shorter backspacing (wheel stays well tucked in the wheel well)

04 thread pitch is different. So you need to run the lug nuts from your 01.

As mentioned, lug size and bolt pattern is the same.


In regards to the back space on the 05-08 wheels....they have more back spacing vs. 99-04 wheels. Fit fine on 05-08s due to the wider axles, but will be tucked under a 99-04 w/o a spacer.


60RatRod,
Yep, those look like 05+ wheels and tires.
