A Ford F150 (1997–2004) uses a 6x135 or 8x170 PCD and a centre bore of 124.9 or 87.1 mm.
Any wheel must match the vehicle's PCD exactly: there is no tolerance, unless you use a PCD adapter.
Centre bore: the wheel must have a centre bore of 87.1 mm or more. If it is larger (as with most aftermarket wheels), add a hub centric ring wheel centre bore → 87.1 mm.
Offset: the original is ET10 to ET44. Compare your future wheel with the offset calculator (your vehicle is already selected) to see how many millimetres further in or out it will sit.
Fixings: thread Ecrous - 14x2.00, tightened to 200 Nm. The nuts or bolts must have the same seat (conical, spherical or flat) as the wheel.
Tyres: original fitment is 245/75R17, 265/70R17, 245/70R17. For another size, check the diameter difference with the equivalence calculator (under 3 % recommended).

Vehicles with the same PCD and centre bore
Same 6x135 PCD and same 87.1 mm centre bore: wheels from these vehicles bolt on and centre on a Ford F150 without rings. Offset, width, diameter and caliper clearance still need checking.
A Ford F150 (1997–2004) can have a 6x135 or 8x170 PCD depending on the version: check on an original wheel.
Does a Ford F150 need a hub centric ring?
The centre bore (hub diameter) of a Ford F150 is 124.9 or 87.1 mm. A wheel with a larger centre bore is fitted with a hub centric ring that brings it down to the hub diameter. A wheel with a smaller centre bore cannot be fitted.
What offset (ET) for a Ford F150?
The recorded original offset is ET10 to ET44 depending on the version and wheel size. A lower ET pushes the wheel outwards, a higher ET pulls it inwards: check wheel well and caliper clearance before making any change.
What tightening torque for the wheels of a Ford F150?
The specified tightening torque is 200 Nm for Ecrous - 14x2.00 fixings. Tighten in a criss-cross pattern with a torque wrench and check the tightness again after about fifty kilometres.
Which vehicles have the same PCD as a Ford F150?
With the same PCD (6x135) and the same centre bore (87.1 mm), these include: Ford Expedition, Lincoln Mark LT, Lincoln Navigator. Offset, width and rim diameter still need checking for each vehicle.
