1949 Ford F-1 Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1949 Ford F-1 rolls on a 5x139.7 bolt pattern with a 108.0mm hub-centric center bore. The stock wheel is 16x4.5 with a 15mm offset, and 16x4.5 is the compatible size for this classic truck. Square setup works here since the front and rear share the same fitment.
The 5x139.7 bolt pattern is exclusive to your F-1, so verify any wheel you consider matches this specification precisely. Since aftermarket wheels often have larger center bores than stock, use hub-centric rings if your chosen wheel's bore exceeds 108.0mm to ensure a proper fit. Aggressive offsets or wider widths risk rubbing against fenders and suspension components, so stay close to the stock 15mm offset and 4.5-inch width.
Every wheel we stock for your F-1 bolts on correctly and ships free to the lower 48 states. Carolina Forged, Icon Alloys, Vision, Black Rhino, American Racing, American Truxx, Fuel 1PC, and FULL THROTTLE all offer 5x139.7 options in 16x4.5 ready to ship.
