Default Wheel questions

What is the bolt pattern on a 1993 f-250? And will 05 dodge 3/4 ton rims fit on it?

not stock ones. the center hole on them is not large enough.


our lug pattern is 8 on 6.5. any ftermarket rim will work, but stock chevy or dodge will not git without some modifacation.

you need to open up the center hole. i had a set of h2 rims on my ford for a while. needed to open the center hold up about a 1/4 inch. maybe a little less. used a carbide bit on an angle air grinder and opened it up. took some time but it worked.

Okay. Well what stock rims will fit? Or will I have to just get some and grind them down?

Before 99 fords right? Cause in 99 they went to 170 bolt pattern right?

And is it possible to take the turbo off and like a 97 powerstroke and put it on my rig?

yes, pre 99 will work. anything witht he 8x6.5 pattern and a large enough center hole


as for the turbo, it can be made to work, but will end up costing more than a used kit.

will not just bolt onto the engine.
