Question 8 lug interchange

I have a chance to pick up a set of 2003 Dodge 8 lug wheels at a fair price, and have been looking to get out of the 16.5 trap. will these fit? The truck is a 79 F-350 single rear wheel.

Are the Dodge wheels a METRIC bolt pattern like the newer Fords?

The present owner says they are 8 on 6 1/2". my main concerns were stud size and centerbore. I was hoping someone had done this swap or was just really knoledgable on this subject.
