1981 Ford F-350 Custom Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1981 Ford F-350 Custom bolts onto an 8x165.1 pattern. The factory wheel measures 16x6 with a 100-millimeter offset. You can also fit 17-inch wheels in 6-inch and 6.5-inch widths, giving you flexibility without requiring a staggered setup. All compatible sizes maintain the same bolt pattern across the vehicle.
Keep in mind that only the 8x165.1 bolt pattern works on this truck. The center bore measures 123.9 millimeters, so use hub-centric rings if your wheel's bore exceeds that size. Going significantly wider or running aggressive negative offsets risks contact with fenders and suspension components, so choose your fitment thoughtfully.
Every wheel we offer for your F-350 Custom is verified to bolt on securely and ships free throughout the lower 48 states. Carolina Forged, Vision, WELD Off-Road, American Truxx, Black Rhino, Fuel 1PC, American Racing, and Tuff all have options ready to ship.
