16"w350 wheels fit chevy or furd one tons???

What is the deal with the three trucks, I can't remember the difference. Will a dodge w350 wheel fit on a furd and chevy? Will the chevy fit on a dodge and furd?? Who cares about furd fitting dodge and chevyha ha ha, just kidding.

The reason I'm asking, I going to sell all 6 of my wheels, tire, and simulators to a guy who owns a camper with a chevy chasiss. He has 16.5 wheels and wants the 16" wheels. Will my wheels fit??

Thanks guys

Tommy,

My experience is only with the 3/4 ton, not the 1 ton but I think they should be the same.

My recollection is that Chevy can use any brand wheel but Ford and Dodge have to use Ford or Dodge. In other words, yes, your wheels should fit his Chevy chassis or any other but you have to use Ford or Dodge rims.

I'm sure that someone else will chime in if they know otherwise.

Our dodges use a a 8 on 6.5" bolt pattern.....Fords use a metric pattern from i think 99 on.....Might be wrong on the year but think its correct.,

That is correct. Ford(pre 99) and Dodge are the same. Chevy uses a smaller center hole.

W350s had 5/8 inch studs, and Chevs have 9/16 inch studs, so the Dodge wheels have a much larger hole, and will not center properly.
