97 F250 wheels for 7 lug - need lift advice

I have a 97 F250 LD and I want to put a 3" suspension lift with 33" tires on it. However, it has 7 lug wheels. I've checked the Weld and American Racing websites and cannot seem to find wheels other than 5, 6, and 8.

Does anyone have advice or experience on lifting a 97 F250 w/ 7 lug wheels or can tell me where I can find wheels online to view? Did anyone have any problems?

Any info would be great.

Dawn

Thanks! After researching a little more, I think I might just go with the 3" body lift instead of suspension.

But, I was wondering how big of a tire can I go on the rims I have now, which would take care of the lug problem. I think they're stock.

When I bought the truck a few years ago, it came with 265/75R16 Bridgestone Duelers which don't seem to be the stock tires.

Can I put 33" tires on them?
