Will these wheels fit?

Just trying to make sure these wheels will fit on my truck. Here is the link 20x9 Polished Alloy ion Style 171 Wheels 8x6 5 0 Dodge RAM 2500 RAM 3500 | eBay It says they will here but I know the hub on the OBS fords are bigger than chevy and dodge. Says the hub bore of the rims are 130.81mm. I couldn't find the hub size for an OBS. My truck is 97 F350 CCLB 4x4.

chevy and dodge both have auto locking vacuum accuated hubs that dont protrude out thru the rim. for an 8x6.5 lug wheel yes it will fit a 90's model ford D60 hub.

The actual hubs on the Chevy and Dodge aren't vacuum actuated. They are unit bearing hubs and don't lock/unlock. Dodge has a vacuum actuating axleshaft disconnect. I believe that the Chevy half-shafts turn all the time and the only disconnect is at the transfer case.

You need around 4-5/8" to clear the OBS hub and those are a bit over 5".
