I need to know if a 15x8 wheel with 4.5 backspace will fit. no offset. i have an 69 F250 with 1 ton brakes and rear end.

Let me know asap!

I could be mistaken but I believe the smallest rim you can run on a 3/4 ton is 16". I believe the brakes are too big for 15's. They came with 16.5's from the factory, F-100 came with 15's.

I can't confirm it, but I think he is right.

I just replaced the rims on my 70 F250 3/4 ton at les schwab and they told me to go with 16's. I have 15.5's on my 70 F100 1/2 ton. Hope that helps.

I've never seen 15" eight lug wheels. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe they exist.

Loads of 15" 8 luggers are out there. They fit fine on the old drum brake highboys, but have no idea if they'd clear 2wd disc brakes (very doubtful).

So are we talkin about stock steelies or aftermarkets? I know when I bought some aftermarkets for my old 78 F250 I had to get 16's to get 8 lugs. Just curious...

I had about 4 complete sets of CENTERLINE 15" 8 luggers.
