How to Read Wheel Offset & Measurements
Use these two references before ordering: the left diagram shows where each spec (PCD, center bore, offset, width and diameter) is measured on the wheel; the right diagram shows how positive, zero and negative offset shift the wheel face relative to the hub centerline.
ANKUSI Engineering Expert Advice
Trucks live and die on unsprung weight and load capacity — every pound added at the wheel is a pound the suspension has to control over every bump, fully loaded or not. Forging the wheel instead of casting it lets us hold the factory load rating while cutting rotational mass, which pays off directly in ride quality and steering response on a vehicle that spends real time towing or hauling.
The Ford F-150 Limited runs a 6x135 bolt pattern, 87.1mm center bore, and a 22x9.0J, front and rear, wheel from the factory. Our Flush Fitment reference is 22x10.0J ET30, which tucks the tire under the fender lip on a stock-height Ford F-150 Limited. Our Maximum Aggressive reference is 24x10.0J ET25 — beyond that offset, expect rubbing against the inner fender liner under compression without further trimming.
Ford F-150 Limited OE Wheel Specs
The 2016 Ford F-150 Limited (Pickup) uses a 6x135 bolt pattern with a 87.1mm center bore. Factory wheels are 22x9.0J F/R.
Why the factory spec works for most owners:
- Balances ride comfort with everyday drivability
- A commonly used size for this vehicle class, supporting parts and tire availability
- Maintains clearance for the factory suspension and brake components
- Provides stable, predictable handling across normal driving conditions
ANKUSI builds these wheels — we are the forging factory, not a reseller. For the Ford F-150 Limited (2016) we drill the 6x135 pattern and cut the centre bore to 87.1mm on our own CNC line, so the wheel hub-centres on the car with no spacer rings, in whatever diameter, width and offset you specify.

Flush Fitment
For a flush look with minimal rubbing, F/R 22x10.0J ET30 is the recommended starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Ford F-150 Limited.
Maximum Aggressive Fitment
F/R 24x10.0J ET25 is a more aggressive reference setup. Beyond this, expect rubbing under compression without fender rolling or camber correction.

Setup: 22x9.0J ET44
Cost: ~$620
Outcome: Minimal visual change, ride and fuel economy essentially unaffected.
Case 2: Balanced Enthusiast (Balanced / Flush Fit)
Profile: Wants a sportier stance without sacrificing daily usability.
Setup: 22x10.0J ET30
Cost: ~$3,000
Outcome: Noticeable visual upgrade, fuel economy drop within the expected range.
Case 3: Show Build (Max Aggressive)
Profile: Built primarily for shows or occasional track/show use.
Setup: 24x10.0J ET25
Cost: ~$5,500
Outcome: Maximum visual impact; daily comfort and fuel economy are heavily compromised, physical test fit required before production.
Decision Guide
Offset & Backspacing Reference
Backspacing is calculated as wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance):
- OE: 22x9.0J ET44 → ~6.73″ backspacing
- Flush: 22x10.0J ET30 → ~6.68″ backspacing
- Max: 24x10.0J ET25 → ~6.48″ backspacing
Want to check a different width or offset before you order? Use our Offset & Backspacing Calculator to solve the numbers yourself, or looking for your exact Ford spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your Ford F-150 Limited? Contact ANKUSI with your bolt pattern and offset target and we will confirm the correct forged wheel spec for your build.
Custom Forged Wheels for the Ford F-150 Limited (2016)
Everything above is reference data. If you want wheels actually built to it, that is what ANKUSI does: we are a forged wheel factory in Guangzhou, China, IATF 16949 and ISO 9001 certified, forging on our own 10,000-ton press and producing over 120,000 wheels a year. Forging blank, CNC machining, finishing, coating and inspection all happen in the same building — nothing is subcontracted and nothing is relabelled from another manufacturer.
Every set is cut to order, so the 6x135 pattern and the 87.1mm centre bore are machined for this car specifically rather than shimmed with adaptor rings. Diameter, width, offset, concavity, monoblock or multi-piece construction and the finish are all yours to choose — most Ford orders on this platform land somewhere between the 22x10.0J ET30 flush setup and the 24x10.0J ET25 aggressive setup referenced above.

Wheel Installation Reference: Torque, Thread & TPMS
Thread & Fastener: M14x2.0, conical-seat lug nut.
Factory Torque Spec: 200 Nm (150 ft-lb). F-150 spec on M14x2.0 studs; confirm the exact figure for your specific model year, since Ford has revised this across generations.
TPMS: TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) has been federally mandated on all new light vehicles sold in the US since the 2008 model year. If your wheels use OE-style sensors, have them transferred or cloned to the new wheels at installation.
Tire Pressure: Always set tire pressure to the value on your vehicle's tire placard (driver's doorjamb or glovebox), not the max PSI printed on the tire sidewall — this is trim- and tire-size-specific and stays the same reference point when you switch to a different wheel and tire combination.
Reference data compiled from published OEM service specifications and cross-checked against independent repair sources; always confirm against your owner's manual or door-jamb placard before installation.
