Bolt Pattern

I just bought a 99 F150 XLT I'm thinking about changing the wheels. My truck has 17 inch rims. Every place that I have looked says that it has 16 inch rims. Does anyone know what the bolt pattern on these 17's are?

The bolt pattern for 97-03/04 trucks is 5x135mm

One thing to consider with the 99 is that Ford changed the lug size mid year. It's been too long for me to remember the detail but it may have been from a 10 mm lug to a 12. This only matters if you're going to use factory wheels as your replacements. If you have the larger lugs, you can't use 97/98 or early 99 wheels.

The 99 used 16's and 17's depending on the option packages.

The stud size changed but the wheels still fit. You just have to use the lug nuts that fit your truck.
