98 factory rim and tire question

i have a 1998 f150. my factory rims are 16x7. i am looking to buy a set of aftermarket rims that are 16x8. my question is that would the tires off the 16x7 rims fit the 16x8 rims? my tires are in good shape and would hate to buy more when i dont need them.

They should but listing your tire size would help.

I'm sure they will fit. I think tire rack will give you a range of recommended rim sizes for different tires. I wouldn't hesitate to install them on 8" rims.
