F-250 Fitment Guide (2017-2026): Bolt Pattern & Tire Sizes
July 6, 2026
What Wheels Fit the Ford F-250 (2017-2026)
Quick Answer
Every 2017-2026 Ford F-250 Super Duty runs an 8x170 mm bolt pattern with a 125 mm hub bore and M14x1.5 lug nuts torqued to 165 lb-ft. In fact, every F-250 since 1999 is 8x170. Upper trims already wear 33 to 34 inch tires from the factory, which is why 35s fit with just a leveling kit and 37s only ask for a 4-6 inch lift.
For those of you who need a heavy duty truck with a more aggressive setup, this is the complete fitment guide for the 2017-2026 Ford F-250 Super Duty. The good news up front: this platform is one of the easiest trucks in America to fit, because Ford hasn't changed the bolt pattern since 1999 and the truck already rides on tall rubber from the factory. Below you'll find the exact specs for every year, stock wheel and tire sizes by trim, and the setups already proven on real customer trucks at every suspension height.
F-250 Wheel Specs by Year (2017-2026)
One pattern, one hub bore, one torque spec, every year. Whether you drive a 2017, 2019, 2022, or a brand new Super Duty, these are your numbers:
| Year | Bolt Pattern | Hub Bore | Lug Nuts | Torque |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2017 F-250 | 8x170 mm | 125 mm | M14x1.5 | 165 lb-ft |
| 2018 F-250 | 8x170 mm | 125 mm | M14x1.5 | 165 lb-ft |
| 2019 F-250 | 8x170 mm | 125 mm | M14x1.5 | 165 lb-ft |
| 2020 F-250 | 8x170 mm | 125 mm | M14x1.5 | 165 lb-ft |
| 2021 F-250 | 8x170 mm | 125 mm | M14x1.5 | 165 lb-ft |
| 2022 F-250 | 8x170 mm | 125 mm | M14x1.5 | 165 lb-ft |
| 2023-2026 F-250 | 8x170 mm | 125 mm | M14x1.5 | 165 lb-ft |
Bolt pattern and lug pattern mean the same thing here: eight lugs on a 170 mm circle. Not sure how to double-check it on your own wheels? Our bolt pattern guide walks you through it.
F-250 Bolt Pattern History (and the Dually Trap)
| Truck | Bolt Pattern | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| F-250 (pre-1999) | 8x165.1 (8x6.5") | Old body style trucks; looks nearly identical, does not fit |
| F-250 Super Duty 1999-2026 | 8x170 mm | 27 years, one pattern; this guide |
| F-350 Super Duty (single rear wheel) | 8x170 mm | Same as yours; F-350 SRW wheels bolt right on |
| F-350 / F-450 dually (DRW) | 8x200 mm | Dually wheels will not fit your F-250 |
Two 8-lug traps to dodge. First, 8x170 and 8x165.1 look identical from three feet away: the old pre-1999 pattern is under 5 mm different, and it does not fit. Second, dually wheels are 8x200, so that great deal on F-350 DRW takeoffs won't help you. The safe move: shop by 8x170 and everything you see bolts up.
Stock Wheels & Tires for the 2017-2026 F-250
Here's the Super Duty's secret advantage: it wears genuinely tall tires straight off the lot. While half-ton trucks leave the factory on 31s and 32s, your F-250's upper trims start at 33 inches:
| Factory Wheel | Stock Tire Size | Overall Diameter | Typical Trims |
|---|---|---|---|
| 17 inch | LT245/75R17 or 265/70R17 | 31.5" / 31.6" | XL work spec |
| 18 inch | LT275/70R18 | 33.2" | XL / XLT / Lariat |
| 20 inch | LT275/65R20 | 34.1" | Lariat / King Ranch / Platinum / Limited |
| 18 inch (Tremor) | 285/75R18 | 34.8" | Tremor off-road package, marketed as 35s |
Read that table again and the whole fitment math clicks: your truck was engineered around 33 and 34 inch rubber. That's why the jumps on this platform are smaller than people expect, and why the offset number matters more than diameter for transforming the look. Our wheel offset guide covers picking the right one.
What Fits at Every Suspension Height
These setups come from real customer trucks: combinations we know clear because they're already on the road. Popular brands for this platform include Moto Metal, Ballistic, ARKON OFF-ROAD, Fuel, and TIS.

Stock Suspension Fitment
The most common setup for this generation on stock suspension is a set of 20x10 -19 wheels with 33x12.5R20 tires. Wider than stock, more aggressive than stock, zero suspension work required.

Leveling Kit Fitment
On a Super Duty, the leveling kit is the biggest bang for the buck in the entire truck world: one afternoon, and true 35s clear. The go-to package is 20x10 -25 wheels with 35x12.5R20 tires.
- Small wheel, big tire: 18x9 -12 wheels with 35x12.5R18 tires

3-Inch Lift Fitment
A 3 inch lift adds ground clearance and breathing room for wider setups, though the sweet-spot sizes carry over: 20x10 -18 wheels with 35x12.5R20 tires is the most popular combination at this height.
- Small wheel, big tire: 18x9 -12 wheels with 35x12.5R18 tires

- Small wheel, big tire: 18x9 +18 wheels with 37x12.5R18 tires (may rub slightly at full turn with a 4 inch lift)
- Middle of the road: 22x12 -44 wheels with 37x13.5R20 tires
- Big wheel, small tire: 24x14 -76 wheels with 37x13.5R24 tires (6 inch lift and minor plastic trimming required)
Max Tire Size at Every Height
The question behind every question: how big can I go? Here's the honest answer for a 2017-2026 F-250, height by height:
| Suspension | Comfortable Max | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Stock | 33x12.5 (33") | Upper trims practically wear this from the factory; widest 22s need minor trimming |
| Leveling kit | 35x12.5 (35") | The Super Duty sweet spot; the most truck-per-dollar upgrade there is |
| 3" lift | 35x12.5 (35") | Same tire, more clearance and wider wheel options |
| 4-6" lift | 37x13.5 (37") | 37s clear without major modification; widest setups need minor trimming |

What is the bolt pattern on a 2017-2026 Ford F-250?
Every 2017-2026 Ford F-250 Super Duty uses an 8x170 mm bolt pattern with a 125 mm hub bore and M14x1.5 lug nuts torqued to 165 lb-ft. That covers 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022 models as well as the current 2023 and newer Super Duty, in every trim.
Is the F-250 bolt pattern the same for all years?
Every F-250 Super Duty from 1999 to 2026 uses the same 8x170 bolt pattern, so wheels interchange across 27 years of trucks. The exception is pre-1999 old body style F-250s, which used the visually similar but incompatible 8x165.1 (8x6.5 inch) pattern.
Do F-350 wheels fit an F-250?
Single rear wheel F-350 wheels fit an F-250 perfectly, since both trucks share the 8x170 bolt pattern and 125 mm hub bore. Dually wheels do not: F-350 and F-450 dual rear wheel trucks use a different 8x200 pattern that will not bolt to your F-250.
What size tires come stock on a 2017-2026 F-250?
Depending on trim, a 2017-2026 F-250 came stock with LT245/75R17 or 265/70R17 on 17 inch wheels, LT275/70R18 on 18s, or LT275/65R20 on 20s. Those run from about 31.5 to 34.1 inches tall, and the Tremor package steps up to a 285/75R18 that measures nearly 35 inches.
What is the biggest tire that fits a stock F-250?
A 33x12.5 fits a stock 2017-2026 F-250 comfortably, and since upper trims already wear 33 to 34 inch tires from the factory, even some 35s squeeze onto stock suspension. For a clean, no-rub 35x12.5 setup we recommend at least a leveling kit, which is this truck's single most popular upgrade.
What is the biggest tire for a leveled F-250?
With a leveling kit, a 35x12.5 tire fits a 2017-2026 F-250 cleanly, and 20x10 -25 wheels with 35x12.5R20 tires is the proven crowd favorite. Want 37s? Plan on a 4-6 inch lift, where 37x13.5 tires clear without major modification.
Do 2023 and newer F-250 wheels fit a 2017-2022 F-250?
Yes. The 2023 and newer Super Duty kept the same 8x170 bolt pattern and 125 mm hub bore, so wheels swap freely between the generations in both directions. Match tire diameter to your suspension height and check offset, and everything bolts up.
