Ion Type 171 5x135 16x8-5 Polished Wheels for the 1998 ford f150

The 16×8 –5 Ion Type 171 sits well outside the F150's modern fitment envelope, which begins at 20×9 for stock and extends to 22×10 on aggressive setups; this downsizing places the wheel in a classic or restomod category rather than contemporary stance tuning. The –5 offset will push the wheel outboard significantly relative to OEM 20-inch specs, and on a lowered truck shown here, fender clearance becomes the primary consideration—plan for minor fender rolling or trimming depending on suspension drop and load. Square fitment with matching tire widths (likely 245–265/75R16 range) is achievable, though you'll sacrifice the modern all-terrain or light-truck tire selection that 17-inch and larger diameters offer.

The Ion Type 171 5x135 16x8-5 Polished is one of the most popular aftermarket wheel choices for the ford f150 platform.
