Talking wheels

I was wondering if anyone manufactures and sells the hub centric wheels for a 99-f-150.
I would also like to know the bolt patern for my truck because i thought it was 5 on 5.5" but I tried a set and it was a definite no go!

If know one makes hub centric wheels can I buy normal wheels and normal lug nuts and just say screw it with the "hub centric" crap!

Thanks!
Phillip

Not sure on the hub centric wheels, but most maufacturers should make them. The bolt spacing is 5 on 135mm.

My 2 cents worth

If you're gonna stroke it, POWERSTROKE IT!!!

The lug pattern is 5 on 135mm like powerstroke said. The "hub-centric" wheels are bologna - don't limit yourself to looking for aftermarket wheels of this type. I bought Eagle alloys 1439 series and they were not hub-centric. They just had dome lugnuts and everything is fine. I asked the guy at National Tire in Whelling (this place does nothing but 4-wheelin stuff) and he said it did not matter one bit if they were hub-centric or not and that they had puts lots of non-hubcentric wheels on new model F-150 with absolutely no problems.

Thanks a bunch! I think I will just buy normal wheels and lugs to make thing much simpler and cheaper.

Thanks again!
