I am pretty sure the bolt pattern is 5x135, but im looking to get my GF's 03 scab new wheels and tires and want to save money by going to the 16. She currently has stock 17's and i guess my ? is are the 16's gonna fit (im almost certain they will) and is her bolt pattern the same as my 97 f150 which is 5x135. Thanks!!

 

yes you are correct 5x135

 

huh??

you want to remove the stock rims from one truck and put them on another truck to save money???

 

no...im lookin to get new "im looking to get my GF's 03 scab new wheels and tires"...i want to go to the 16" because wheels and tires for those are less expensive than the 17"

 

Yeah i figured...just wasnt 100% cuz her truck is 6 years newer than mine...thanks

 

some 17s are cheaper

 

what kind?...cuz it is extremely hard to find this bolt pattern now

 

i was directin that towards tires, as for the rims 16s are easier to find

 

Gotcha...yeah i think im gonna downsize the rims and upsize the tires....either that or a sound system...whatever comes first

 

I have a set of eagle wheels for sale in that bolt pattern in a 16x8

 

same 5x135 bolt pattern, but the 97 has 12mm studs and the 03 has 14mm studs

 

The 16's MIGHT not fit, it depends on the size of the rotor and calipers. My 2000 has the offroad AND 7700 package and i can not downsize to a 16 because i have the big rotors. I had the same thing in mind as you have so I would definitely check into it before i bought the 16's.

 

True....yeah i deff will look into it more....i would hate to drop 7 benjamins on wheels and they not fit

 

only the Lightnings and the 7700 series trucks have the larger front brakes from the factory

 

??? Every F250LD/7700 truck I've ever seen has 16s stock???
