Expert Buying Guide for 1996 Ford F350 Super Cab
For your 1996 Ford F350 Super Cab, the bolt pattern is 8x165.1mm with a critical center bore of 124.9mm. Aftermarket wheels often have a larger bore (e.g., 130mm), requiring hub-centric rings to prevent vibration and ensure proper load distribution. The factory offset is 0mm; deviations beyond ±10mm may cause rubbing or clearance issues. Always use lug nuts with the correct thread pitch (9/16-18) and seat type—factory wheels use a cone seat. Never mix seat types. Re-torque lug nuts after 50-100 miles of driving. Wheels from 1992-1997 Ford F350 Super Cab models are direct fit.
