does anyone know what will happen?

what will happen if I put a pair of front wheel drive rims on my f150?
the rims were on a front wheel drive suv so will they work for my truck?

What year is your truck? If it's a 97-08, there are no wheels for a front wheel drive vehicle with the same bolt pattern.

I can't seem to find any wheels that fit my truck for a good price so i'm getting adapters for the new wheels. my truck is a 1991 f150 5 lug 5x139.7 0mm offset. I was told that it was not a good idea to put front wheel drive wheels on my truck but its a work truck so i don't really care that much about it.I just want to know what would happen if i did put front wheel drive wheels on my truck?

Most wheels for front wheel drive vehicles have a lot of backspacing, which means they will tuck way inside the wheelwells on a truck.

If you make sure your adapters are 2" spacers then the problem should be solved or offset them to where they make your back spacing enough to clear everything good.
