'99 8 lug F350 rims fit '72 8 lug?

Post by Galaxie64 »

I am looking at some rims that fit a '99 F350, will they fit on my '72s hubs and studs?
'68 F150 2wd
'72 F250 2wd Camper Special (400/C6/4bbl)
'64 Galaxie 500 (3524bbl/57K miles)
'92 Grand Marquis (mostly stock 4.6L)
'97 F150 (heavily modded 5.4L)
'48 F1 (Flat 6)
'51 F3 (Flat V8 )
'56 F350 (engineless)

nope wont fit. they changed (in '97 or so) to a flat lug nut and a metric (115mm, i think) lug pattern.

Its 170mm on the 8 lugs and they are hubcentric rims but I thought I may be able to get away with either using lugcentric lugs backwards or find hubcentric lugs that fit my studs. Guess I'll have to save up for some of the ones out of LMC.
