Rim question

I have a 82 f150. Lookin for rims. I found the 10 hole aluminum rims off a 94 f150. Will these fit? The guy says the bolt pattern is 5x5.5 but is the offset ok?

Any rim from a 48?-1996 Ford F1,F100,F150 will fit your truck.78-96 Bronco and possible the First Gen Bronco wheels will fit too.The backspace is fine,the only problem you might have is with running bigger tires.Anything 10.50 and wider will rub on the radius arms.

Are they the 10 holes with the rivets?Or the ones without the rivets(Like BumbleBee's truck)?

Actually, some older factory rims will bolt on, but won't clear the calipers. I've seen that happen when someone tried to use a factory rim from a 65 on a newer disc brake frontend.
But yeah, most any rim from 73 and newer will fit any truck with the 5.5" pattern.

Yea i've seen conflicting stuff on the fitment.Some people say it works,other say it doesn't.So I put a question mark after 48 just in case.

Blk_smoke,oh okay.Sweet.I asked because I think the ones with rivets look strange on these trucks,but the ones you found would look great.
