alcoa rims for f-250
 

Hi, I have a couple of questions, 1st what is the weight rating of the stock aluminum xlt rims for a psd. 2nd A friend recently gave me a set of alcoa aluminum rims 16x7 rated for 3042lbs, so I can mount a set of snow tires. these rims have the countersunk type lugs, can I use these on my truck? I own a 02 250 psd sc LB 4X4. Can I just buy new set of lug nuts?

Good rims.They should be made out of forged aluminum.They are quite sufficent as far as the load rating is concerned.

Now the bad news,I don't believe they have the same bolt pattrern.I personally wouldn't deviate from the original lug design that your truck uses.

I don't think you can use the wheels on your truck. The SD's have 2 piece lug nuts and counter sunk wheels I think use 1 piece lug nuts. That aside, the SD wheels are Hubcentric, meaning load is placed on the wheel hub vs. Lugcentric where the load is taken by the lug nuts/axle studs. I could be wrong but if you go to the alcoa wheels website more info is available there. BTW, stock aluminum wheels from ford are manufactured by Alcoa.
