1960-1996 Classic Ford F100 & F150 Wheel Fitment
These American Racing Torq Thrust II wheels are an excellent fitment and styling option for select classic Ford F-100 and F-150 trucks from 1960 through 1996 equipped with the compatible 5x5.5 / 5x139.7 five-lug bolt pattern and a hub that clears the 87.1mm wheel center bore.
The combination of a 20x8 wheel, 0mm offset, 4.5-inch backspacing, 87.1mm center bore, chrome finish, and traditional 5-spoke design makes the VN6152876 particularly attractive for classic Ford truck owners who want modern 20-inch sizing without losing the vintage American appearance of their truck.
Fitment is not guaranteed by year, make, and model alone. Classic Ford trucks can have different axles, hubs, brakes, suspension systems, and decades of previous modifications. Verify the actual truck before ordering.
1960-1966 Classic Ford F100 Wheels
For compatible 1960-1966 Ford F-100 trucks using the 5x5.5 bolt pattern and approximately 87mm hub, the VN615 Torq Thrust II provides a classic hot-rod and muscle-car-inspired appearance in a modern 20-inch truck wheel.
Potential applications include select:
- 1960 Ford F-100
- 1961 Ford F-100
- 1962 Ford F-100
- 1963 Ford F-100
- 1964 Ford F-100
- 1965 Ford F-100
- 1966 Ford F-100
These early Ford trucks are excellent candidates for a classic 5-spoke wheel on custom, restored, lowered, restomod, and street-truck builds. Always verify the actual 5x5.5 bolt pattern, hub diameter, brake clearance, suspension clearance, and tire clearance before ordering.
1967-1972 Bumpside Ford F100 Wheels
The 1967-1972 Ford F-100 Bumpside is one of the strongest classic Ford styling applications for the American Racing Torq Thrust II.
The traditional chrome 5-spoke wheel complements the distinctive body lines of a Bumpside Ford while the 20-inch diameter gives the truck a modern street-truck or restomod stance.
Potential applications include select:
- 1967 Ford F-100
- 1968 Ford F-100
- 1969 Ford F-100
- 1970 Ford F-100
- 1971 Ford F-100
- 1972 Ford F-100
These wheels are especially worth considering if you are searching for Bumpside Ford wheels, Bumpside F100 wheels, 20-inch Bumpside wheels, chrome F100 wheels, retro Ford truck wheels, or American Racing wheels for a 1967-1972 Ford F100.
1973-1979 Dentside Ford F100 & F150 Wheels
The 1973-1979 Ford Dentside generation is another excellent target application for these American Racing Torq Thrust II wheels.
The F-150 name was introduced during this era, making these years particularly important for customers searching both Ford F100 wheels and Ford F150 wheels.
Potential applications include select:
- 1973 Ford F-100
- 1974 Ford F-100
- 1975 Ford F-100
- 1975 Ford F-150
- 1976 Ford F-100
- 1976 Ford F-150
- 1977 Ford F-100

- 1978 Ford F-100
- 1978 Ford F-150
- 1979 Ford F-100
- 1979 Ford F-150
The Torq Thrust II is especially well suited to Dentside Ford street trucks, lowered trucks, restomods, retro builds, custom pickups, and restored trucks with modern wheels.
1980-1986 Bullnose Ford Truck Wheels
The 1980-1986 Bullnose Ford generation is another important classic Ford truck market for the Torq Thrust II.
For compatible F-150 applications using the traditional 5x5.5 / 5x139.7 bolt pattern and appropriate hub clearance, the chrome VN615 offers a retro appearance that works extremely well with the square body lines of the Bullnose Ford.
IMPORTANT F-100 EXCEPTION: Do not assume every 1980-1985 Ford F-100 uses the 5x5.5 bolt pattern. Certain F-100 2WD configurations are documented with a 5x4.5 bolt pattern. A 5x4.5 truck will NOT accept this 5x5.5 wheel.
Always verify the actual bolt pattern on a 1980s F-100 before ordering.
1987-1991 Bricknose Ford F150 Wheels
The 1987-1991 Ford F-150, commonly referred to by enthusiasts as the Bricknose Ford, is another excellent candidate for a classic 5-spoke American Racing wheel.
For compatible 5x5.5 trucks with the proper hub clearance, the 20x8 chrome Torq Thrust II provides a clean street-truck appearance without using a modern wheel style that looks out of place on a vintage Ford pickup.
Potential applications include select:
- 1987 Ford F-150
- 1988 Ford F-150
- 1989 Ford F-150
- 1990 Ford F-150
- 1991 Ford F-150
1992-1996 OBS Ford F150 Wheels
The 1992-1996 Ford F-150 is one of the strongest applications for this wheel package. These trucks are commonly known as OBS Ford trucks or old-body-style Ford trucks.
Documented 1992-1996 F-150 applications use the 5x139.7 / 5x5.5 bolt pattern with an approximately 87.1mm center bore, which closely matches the key mounting dimensions of the American Racing VN6152876.
Potential applications include select:
- 1992 Ford F-150
- 1993 Ford F-150
- 1994 Ford F-150
- 1995 Ford F-150
- 1996 Ford F-150
The Torq Thrust II gives an OBS F-150 a traditional American 5-spoke appearance while the 20-inch diameter provides the larger wheel size commonly desired on modern street-truck and restomod builds.

87.1mm Center Bore – Measure Your Ford Truck Hub Before Ordering
The 87.1mm center bore is one of the most important fitment specifications for this wheel.
The American Racing VN6152876 has an 87.1mm center opening. The hub or axle assembly that protrudes through the center of the wheel must physically clear this opening for the wheel to sit completely against the mounting surface.
This is especially important on classic Ford trucks because axle, hub, brake, drivetrain, and 2WD/4WD configurations can vary significantly.
If the hub that must pass through the wheel is larger than the available 87.1mm center opening, these wheels will NOT fit.
NOT for Large-Hub Dana Axle Applications
Do not order these wheels based solely on the 5x5.5 bolt pattern.
Some classic Ford trucks use larger protruding hubs, locking hubs, Dana axle assemblies, axle conversions, or other configurations that require substantially more center-bore clearance.
These American Racing VN6152876 wheels have an 87.1mm center bore.
They are NOT intended for large-hub or Dana axle applications where the hub requires more than 87.1mm of center-bore clearance.
If you have a 4x4, locking-hub setup, Dana axle, axle swap, brake conversion, or any other non-standard hub configuration, physically measure the largest portion of the hub that must pass through the wheel before ordering.
5x5.5 / 5x139.7 Ford Truck Wheels
5x5.5 and 5x139.7 describe the same bolt-circle diameter. The 5x5.5 designation uses inches, while 5x139.7 expresses the same bolt-circle measurement in millimeters.
This bolt pattern was used on many classic Ford half-ton trucks, making it an important search and fitment specification for vintage F-100 and F-150 wheel applications.
However, bolt pattern alone does not determine wheel fitment.
Before ordering, verify:
- 5x5.5 / 5x139.7 bolt pattern
- Hub will clear the 87.1mm center bore
- 20x8 wheel size clearance
- 0mm offset compatibility
- 4.5-inch backspacing compatibility
- Brake caliper clearance
- Steering clearance
- Suspension clearance
- Fender clearance
- Correct tire size and overall tire diameter
20x8 Ford F100 & F150 Wheels
The 20x8 size provides a modern wheel diameter without becoming excessively wide for many classic street-truck builds.
The 8-inch width offers useful tire-size flexibility while retaining the clean proportions of the Torq Thrust design.
The 0mm offset and 4.5-inch backspacing also provide wheel positioning more appropriate to many older truck builds than the high positive offsets commonly found on modern late-model wheels.
Final tire size should always be selected according to the individual truck's suspension height, brake package, fender clearance, intended stance, and driving use.
Classic Torq Thrust Styling for Vintage Ford Trucks
The American Racing Torq Thrust is one of the most recognizable classic American wheel designs. Its simple five-spoke layout has been associated with American muscle cars, hot rods, customs, and performance vehicles for generations.
The VN615 Torq Thrust II 1-Piece brings that traditional styling to a modern 20-inch aluminum wheel.
On a classic Ford pickup, the chrome five-spoke design provides the vintage appearance many owners want without limiting the build to an original small-diameter wheel.
This makes the VN615 an excellent styling choice for:
- Classic Ford F-100 Trucks
- Vintage Ford Pickups
- 1960s Ford Trucks
- Bumpside Ford F-100 Builds
- Dentside Ford F-100 and F-150 Builds
- Bullnose Ford F-150 Builds
- Bricknose Ford F-150 Builds
- OBS Ford F-150 Builds
- Retro Ford Trucks
- Ford Restomod Trucks
- Lowered Ford Trucks
- Ford Street Trucks
- Pro-Touring Style Ford Trucks
- Custom Ford Pickups
- Restored Ford Trucks with Modern Wheels

How to Verify Fitment on a 1960-1996 Ford Truck
- Confirm your truck actually uses a 5x5.5 / 5x139.7 five-lug bolt pattern.
- Measure the hub that must pass through the wheel center opening.
- Confirm that the hub will clear the wheel's 87.1mm center bore.
- Pay special attention to large hubs, Dana axles, locking hubs, 4x4 systems, and axle conversions.
- Confirm clearance for a 20x8 wheel with 0mm offset and 4.5-inch backspacing.
- Check front and rear brake clearance.
- Check steering and suspension clearance.
- Check fender clearance throughout the suspension travel.
- Select a tire size appropriate for the truck's ride height and available clearance.
- Account for any axle swaps, disc-brake conversions, lowering kits, suspension changes, or other modifications made during the truck's lifetime.
Important Classic Ford Truck Fitment Notice
Many of these Ford trucks are now several decades old and may no longer have their original axles, brakes, hubs, suspension, or drivetrain components.
Do not determine fitment by year, make, and model alone.
The final fitment decision should be based on the actual truck's:
- Bolt pattern
- Hub diameter
- Axle and hub configuration
- Brake clearance
- Suspension clearance
- Wheel backspacing and offset requirements
- Fender clearance
- Tire size
These wheels have an 87.1mm center bore and will not fit a large-hub or Dana-style application requiring a center opening larger than 87.1mm.
