Default 2004 e-250

I have a 2004 e-250 that has a lug pattern of 8x6.5. I purchased some dodge wheels with the same lug pattern but the wheels don’t seem to wanna torque correctly with the stock E-250 lug nuts. Do I need different lug nuts?

I can't say without looking at the parts, but bolt patterns are only part of the set up. I would suggest you stay with Ford wheels.

I agree with Hanky. If the bevel of the wheel is different, it won't torque right and you could lose it on the road.

Hey Rusty, how are you? Haven't heard from you in a while?
How did you make out with the side or rear door problem? Don't keep us in suspense .

Thanks for helping out Shane with the wheel problem.

Just driving the van as is for now. Health problems limit what I can do for now. Doctor may turn me loose next week.

I don't have as much knowledge as you, but I try.

We're all learning. Seems the more I try to learn the more I realize I have a way to go to catch up to you.
