My friend bought a 85 F350 roll back, but the previous owner will not let it leave his property with out new tires(driven away). So my friend is jut going to get 6 new wheels and tires and put them on so he can drive it home(300 miles) But he is unsure of what wheels they used in 85. Are they a hub centeric type or do they have the "coined" lug nut holes?

Any help would be great

i dont think it matters.
whatever you find for dually rims will determine which nuts you'll need right?
just use the correct type for the wheels you get.

I believe if he finds Chevy wheels the centers are smaller than the Fords and won't fit over the hubs. I'm not sure on Dodges.

1985 is a transition year between the coined and the hubcentric wheels.
if it is a Dana 70 axle, chances are it's coined.
if it is a Sterling 10.25, it's hubcentric.
