Anyone Know Lug Patterns? Cuase I don't...
 
I have always loved these type of wheels.....(see link) I don't know why but I have loved em and a lot of people hate them...(I guess I'm just different) :lol:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...43953....These seem overpriced (to me) but it's the best quality I could find to show you.

And I want to put some on my 77 Silverado 2x4. I have been trying to find out what size lug pattern I have (5 lug) but I can't find anything that goes back to 77. If I were to put these type of wheels on what kind of adapter would I have to get for them to fit on my truck?

Thanks

you have a 5x5 lug pattern on a 2wd 77 c10. 4x4s had 6x5.5, and 3/4 tons and 1 tons had 8x6.5.

saw a dodge truck (80ish) painted like the General Lee, but had "02" instead of "01" for the number... had those wheels. I thought it was a nice spin.

btw... 5x5

You will need these...

Though they say for Jeep the main thing is they are 5x5" (truck) bolt pattern to 5x4.5" (wheels) bolt pattern. They will also widen your stance a bit, about 3" overall and you will have to keep the tightened (at every oil change) as they are notorious for loosening (or breaking...) and then your whole wheel falls off.

I am not saying this brand in particular are notorious for loosening and breaking, but it is the product in general. It is one of those... you get what you pay for things.

I wouldn't touch them with a 10' stick for the reasons you mentioned. IMHO I wouldn't want to add parts that are likely to fail and could cause damage/accident. YMMV

Aluminum wheel 'spacers' are known for loosening & breaking (cracking). But those pics are of billet wheel adapters which are different.

Bolting a set of adapters is like bolting on a set of wheels so they aren't going anywhere if torqued properly just like your alum wheels won't go anywhere if torqued properly. The billet adapters in turn have studs that retain the wheels.

I love those wheels personally. Appliance Turbos is the name of the ones I found.
