Up to a certain year, 1997 or older.  Sometime after that they changed some on the 8 lugs.

its kinda hard to tell in the pic i have of them but they look like theyre from a 2000's f250 but im not sure...the guy that has them used to have them on an 88 gmc 2500 so im 99% sure that theyll fit because the 2500 bolt pattern for gm was the same for a while (dont know the exact years) but the deal im getting is $60 for all 4 rims with 4 tires(only 2 have tread, mt 285/75/r16) and all 4 center caps so its a pretty good deal and theyre the aluminum rims

That is a deal if they'll fit and are straight.

If they are from a 2000's F250 they WILL NOT FIT your truck.

If this guy had them on a 88 GMC 2500, they didn't fit properly on his truck either. Ask him if the had the lug holes re-drilled and tapered...?

Need better pics to tell. The second pic is definitely the '99-newer ford SD wheel, which will NOT work on your truck. I can't tell about the first pic.

All older 3/4-ton and 1-ton trucks (GM, Dodge, Ford) use the 8-on-6.5in bolt pattern, but the 1999-newer Fords are 8-on-170mm (~5 mm larger diameter than 6.5-inches). Pre-99 Fords have the same 8-on-6.5 that GM and Dodges use. Not sure why they changed... The wheels look very similar, and they will even fit over the studs if you push hard enough...
