F250 Alcoa rims on a 8 lug 2500? Anyone done this?

[JScott23]

So not sure if this is the right place for this, but i bought a set of 95 F250 alcoa rims for cheap! Now has anyone run these on a 8 lug C or K2500/3500? I know the offset is 20mm difference, which isn't even a inch.

I've seen them on other GMT400's but haven't done it myself. The guys at discount tire wouldn't swap them on my truck because the offset isn't the same as the stocks... the guy said "if it was my truck i wouldn't do it." I told him that just because the computer says they're not the same as the stock wheels doesn't mean they wont work... the offset doesn't concern me, its not even a inch.. and the weight rating? are you kidding they're for a F250/F350...

I just didn't know how they fit, or what tires you guys have run on them? I plan on running 245/75/16's rather than my 265's.

They should fit. Ford didn't change to metric lug spacing until '99 IIRC.

Until then the big three all ran 8x6.5. Ford switched over to 8x170mm I believe.

It's a 95 Ford, 8x6.5 pattern.. i just didn't know if anyone had run them to see how the offset fit .. i don't think they'll be a problem

Why not pull one rim and test fit the rim?

ive seen the 4x4 aluminum alcoas on an 8 lug chevy somewhere, can't remember where tho. the obs fords should fit but when they go into the "superduty" 99+ trucks they are different.
