Default Will Ford Wheels fit my Dodge?

I found a pretty good deal on some moto maxx 6 wheels that were on a F-150. They are 16X10 5 lug with 5.5 pattern.

Will they work?

Is 10 to wide?

Your truck will be slower though since they came from a Ford.

As long as its a 5.5 should fit. With a 10" wide rim you will need 6.5" backspacing or the tires will hang out past the body. If its less bs than that, it will hang out whatever the difference is.
