Does any one know if 99-04 Excursion/Super Duty 16" wheels will fit my 1987 F250 4WD? I tried some Dodge 8 lug wheels but they hit the tie rod/steering knuckle. Not sure if the off set was the problem or beefier shoulder of the alloy rims. The wheels I'm considering are factoryFord alloys.

 

1999-04 Ford Super Duty F-250/350 (S & DRW)
Lugs: 8
Bolt circle: 170mm / 6.7”
Rear Hub: 4.9”
Stud size: 14mm


1967-96 Ford F-250/350 (S & DRW)
Lugs: 8
Bolt circle: 6 ½”
Rear Hub: 4 ¾”
Stud size: 9/16”

FYI –14mm is just under 9/16”

The 14mm lugs may be tight or not go on your 1987 F-250 9/16” studs.

I would try one first before you buy them...

The Super Duty rim/lug stud size changed sometime in 2004,
the stud/lugs are smaller in diameter.

To determine Rim Bolt Pattern:
Measure holes directly across from each other (Center to Center)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Note:
Aftermarket 8-lug Wheel/Rims center hole are usually 4 ¾” diameter.
This is so the Rims will fit all older model trucks with 8-lug hubs.

1988-98 Chevrolet/GMC truck (¾ ton & 1 ton) 8-lug rims have a
4 ½” diameter center hole and will not fit the 1967-96 F-Series Dana 60 rear axle hub.

Factory Ford and Dodge 4WD 8-lug (4 ¾” diameter center hole)
rims will fit the 1988-98 Chevrolet/GMC 4 ½” hubs.

Dodge 4WD and Hummer 8-lug rims will fit 1967-96 F-Series F-250/350 trucks.
Dodge 2WD 8-lug rims will not fit because of the smaller ½” diameter lugs/studs.

Hope this helps!

 

Thanks for all the info, it was helpful. Would 1997 F250 alloys fit? This another option I'm exploring.

 

The Light-Duty 1997 F-250 (New Body Style) may or may not fit. (?)
I'm unsure of the rim/lug bolt pattern on the light-duty F-250.

The 1992-96 Body Style F-250/350's had an extended model run
until the new Body Style Ford Super Duty F-250/350/450 debuted in 1999.

The 1997 F-250/350 (Old 92-96 Body Style) 8-lug rims would be the same
as your 1987 F-250 8-lug rims.
I've only seen a few of these or didn't realize it was a 97 year model,
just thought it was a good shape clean 1996 F-250 truck.

Hope this helps!

 

The '92-'96 body style is what I meant, sorry to be so confusing, my friend has a '97 super duty that is the older body style and that's what I was basing it on. Thanks for all the help in trying to find some decent wheels.

 

I think the
1997 F-450/550 (Old Body Style) Super Duty has 10-lug wheels.

Your Buddy's truck is not a Super Duty if it is only a F-250

Someone correct me if I'm wrong...

 

With it being a 97 with our body style it would be a heavy duty F-250. Before the body changes Ford had the light and heavy F-250 with the difference being a semi floating dana 60 in the rear as apposed to the full floating in the heavy duty. The newer body style uses the metric bolts and I also believe that they use the flat lug nuts instead of the tapered our trucks do.
