Ford Rims on a Chevy (Dually)

Ok, so I found some very nice, heavy duty rims from an older Ford F450. They use a 5/8" lug with an 8 on 6.5 pattern.

Anyone see problems with this?

The Chevy's rims are hub centric, where the Ford's rims have a much larger hub opening.

Ford hub is 4.88 and the Chevy is 4.60...

Strange thing is that they both use Dana 60 front hubs, which I think are the same outer diameter. I will drill the hubs for the 5/8" stud, they currently have 9/16" ones.

I plan to use a Chevy inner wheel in the rear with Chevy rim clamp plates, so the rear will match the hub... I do have concerns about the outer and front rims fitting and handling weight correctly.

I'll be putting them on:
