wheel question
 
2 Attachment(s)
i found these wheels from a 2004 2500 hd truck on CL and they are the same size and bolt pattern but i am not sure about the bore hole size compared to my original steel ones. will these wheels fit and does the stock lugs that come with them work as well?

Those wheels will work just fine. You'll need a conversion lug nut to use the caps though, you can find them on ebay. I used a hole saw on two of the caps to clear the hubs

Re: wheel question

No, the newer trucks use a metric thread.

Re: wheel question
 
i havent picked the wheels up yet but i was told my wheels have a back space of 3 and these have a backspce of 5 and that it would moves my tires 2 inches inward and rub when i make turns.

Re: wheel question
 
they will fit fine, not sure what size tire you are going to use but I had 295's on mine and it would only rub occasionally at full lock turning right on the pitman arm.
