those only came on the hd f150 and the light duty f250,and i believe only in that year, so sorry to say but chances are you'd be better off scrapping them to try and get some cash out of them. not very common or desired.

You can try and sell them in our classifieds if you haven't already. Those trucks have been made for over 10 years but are not as common as the regular 1/2 ton or SD. If you happen to need one, they can be very desirable. There are aftermarket 7-lug wheels but there is a price to be paid for getting them.

Dave,

He is in Wisconsin and you are only a stone's throw from me. Have you dropped by the KS chapter? Kansas Chapter - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums

If you have the nice chrome looking ones there is one thing to look for. With enough time, the chrome cover is forced off the wheel as the expoxy looses it grip . Once it starts lifting, you cannot keep the center cap on. I suspect that water gets in, freezes, and pushes the cover off. You can spot these either by trying to fit a center cap or by looking at the wheel. If the cover is lifted from the wheel, the expoxy is failing.
