mid 80's rally wheels
 

Guys,
Would a 15x8 mid 80's rally wheel fit our trucks? Is the backspacing ok? I am doing the 5x5 pattern with disc brakes all around. Any body got any pictures of them on their trucks?
Thanks.

Yup, that's what I'm sporting on mine. I have the chrome trim rings on 'em (not pictured) and the center caps are sitting on a shelf in the garage that I don't know if I want to put on or not. I'm running 60's, but I'd recommend running 70's. The 60's knocked the cruise altitude on the freeway down about 5 mph (which is alot to lose for me). So the next time I need tires I'm going for the 70's.

Those are all 6 lug. He's asking about 5 lug.

I'm sure it can be done, but I don't have any pictures of one that way.

yep, they fit.
It is very common to see the 5 or 6 lug version on these trucks.
They fit my heap fine with 31x10.5's
I'll try to post a pic.

I agree LOL

Just so no one assumes that drop spindles will work with rallies
(which is a Q I was going to ask when I get to that point wth my GMC)
I am NOT running drop spindles..
All stock with cupped LCA's and (I suspect) cut springs.
2" blocks in the rear
And, yes it drives\rides great
Thanks ,T

2.5'' dropped spindles plus bags work fine on mine.
