hey guys i have a dilema.......i recently got a 96 f150 from a deal i worked out with a friend, anyways heres the deal i have a set of rims for the 97-03 bolt pattern and wanted to put them on the 96. is there an adapter i can get that would allow this to happen? maybe someone could point me in the direction of a place to order these? any help is appreciated thanks

 

A couple companies make bolt pattern adaptors, but they usually gause more problems than they solve (fitment and vibration issues).

 

i cannot seem to find anything on google. these will be going on my play truck, wich will be trailered to the trails, would that still be a problem with the issues you mentioned? Is there any other way to use my existing rims, i mean there nice rims id hate to go by new rims for this build because of the bolt pattern....maybe swap axles? idk maybe someone could shoot me in the right direction

 

You may be alright then. Just get a set of well built ones. Maybe some of the members can give you the name of a company.

 

I would stay away from the adapter plates if it were my truck. Just looking to cause problems for you down the road, especially if this is going on your play truck. It would be a quick way to end a fun day. Best bet just find a good deal on some wheels that are meant to fit the truck correctly. It will save you a fortune in the long run.
