What other model years will fit a 2003?

I am looking at purchasing a new set of Bridgestone Blizzak Winter Dueler DM-Z2 winter tires for my 2003. I would like to purchase some used rims to mount these on.

Does anyone know what other model years will fit the 2003 in a 16" x 7" rim?

I noticed in another thread that Ford changed the stud diameter from 12mm to 14 mm in 1999. Does this mean that only 2001, 2002 and 2003's will fit?

rims from Ford manufactured for F150's and Expeditions after mid '99 should have holes for 14 m.m. lugs. the pre mid '99 wheels will fit ( i have wheels off a '98 on my 2000) "but are not recomended for interchange by the manufacturer".

good choice on the winter duelers-- i have a set on the F150 and the Expy. best winter tire i have ever run.

good luck, conner

97-03 are the same with the exception of the stud sizes. Some people claim that you can't swap between the 2, but I've got 2 spares off a late 99 with 14mm studs.
