I have a found a set of alcoas off of a 96 F350 2wd dually. I was wondering if those would fit my 4wd chevy dually, it is an 05. I am trading this guy for them. I am giving him some woodworking tools that I got from a pawn shop. He has been trying to get these saws, drills from me for some time now. He is the one that told me he would trade me for the alcoas. I figured I will trade just for resale value or use on the 95 if I can get it going. But I would prefer to put them on the 05. Is there someplace I can look on the wheels for part numbers to reference an alcoa website? These are complete wheels with caps.
From memory the Chevy wheels are slightly smaller that Ford and Dodge uses, but I have also read where members have dressed the opening diameter and made them work.
Coolie, my only concern then is hauling the stuff I haul. Are these wheels going to be able to handle 12K lbs on a gooseneck or bumper pull trailer? I sure would hate to warp them or ruin them. I would rather sell them if that is the case.
Alcoas should be aftermarket(they aren't hubcentric like OEM ford wheels anyway) and should fit on your chevy. It's usually the OEM chevy or dodge wheels that wont fit the fords anyhow, so a ford wheel should fit a chevy. I would certainly try swapping them onto your truck before finalizing a deal. I almost called off my trade after the alcoas had been mounted on my truck when I heard I might not be able to use the center caps I wanted.

Alcoas for a F-350 dually certainly are hubcentric. Had my dad's off today for a flat repair and I know his lug nuts are the same as mine with the built in washer and the wheels are centered by the hubs. And yes they are Alcoas because they still have the sticker on them. This may not be the case for your little single wheel but, the original post said dually.
ADTMAN if they don't work out for you I've been looking for a set. (2 rears and 2 fronts)
Thats weird, learn something new every day. My SRW Alcoas are not hubcentric, most aftermarket wheels aren't...in the SRW category anyhow. Since ford still seems to have the largest hub diameter of the big 3 I still think they should fit a chevy.

Thanks for the info guys. I really appreciate the help. Star, I am sure a good machine shop can take care of it for me if I decide to go that far. Never thought about having them machined. Thanks for the idea.
If they don't fit my chevy I will let you know. They are coming off of a 96 ford 2wd dually. Should fit your 87 w/o any problems I would summize. I will let you know.
