I know one thing, a Ford center is smaller and won't even come close to seating on the front of a Mopar.

After market wheels will be the same along with some of the stock wheels.
Older steels the Dodge could be used on a Ford but the Ford center would be too small to fit on a Dodge.

The mopar wheels should have mopar stampings near the valve stem hole. They also originally only came in 14" and did not come in chrome, they required a trim ring to dress the outer edge.

Indeed, there is a Pentastar stamped by the valve stem
