Will These Rims Work?

Hello all, I'm new to this forum....I'm planning on getting an '05 in a couple of weeks....I already own a set of American Racing "Slider" rims (16x8). My question is whether or not these rims will fit on a new model F-150. The "Sliders" have a 6 lug pattern, but I had them on an '03 Chevy Silverado that my girlfriend totalled. They fit fine on the Chevy lug pattern, but will they fit the same on an F-150? I love my rims and don't want to buy new ones if I don't have to. Thanks!

I don't believe the 16" rims will clear the brakes, although you will be able to check and confirm that for us in a couple weeks.

No they won't work. The new Ford's use a 6x135mm bolt pattern which is different than the Chevy's lug pattern. Also, a 16 inch wheel will not fit over the brakes on a 04-05 F-150. You have to use a 17 inch or larger wheel.
