What are these wheels off of?
 
So i have some wheels off a b body van that i dont like, and i came across these from a friend for 100 bucks. I'm 99% sure its a 5x5 bolt pattern,as i saw the exact wheels on a longbed. Any help is awesome. they are 10" wide too. woot. dunno about center caps?

Awesome. Been doing a bunch of googling etc. If any of you Wheelheads out there can find me a part # etc. that'd be cool. Im basically trying to find some pics of them on the truck if possible. found a few pics but most was on ebay with little info.

Ive not. Im going to ask him if i can try one on before i get them. I hope they are 5 on 5.

Easier to measure!
5x5 is 2 15/16 centre of hole to centre of hole on side by side holes.
5x4 3/4 is 2 13/16.

Those aren't factory wheels that I know of.
Back in the 90's they were a popular aftermarket wheel that a lot of people put on their trucks. I believe you could also order them with the inserts in red.

thank you! ive programmed this into my brain for good use later.


As for the wheels im disappointed. They looked good,but one of them i believe is trashed. the surface area that mounts against the rotors/drums looked like someone took a hammer to it bad. It may mount ok,but i was worried that the wheel would have a wobble to it. This sucks. He only wanted 100 bucks for em!

Well yeah, if ones ruined then it's not even worth the 100 bucks
