Nowadays, with 6-lug wheels having returned to GM trucks, there's a lot to choose from......if you have a thick-enough wallet.

Ok, was just wondering because when I first go tthe truck that's the opne thing everyone looked and commented me on was the fact that it had 6 lugs ont the wheels instead of 5. I seemed to think it was better.. that's all. I too want to do a disc conversion down the line.. and would like to use the wheels I already have. How do I do this conversion and retain 6 lugs. I saw some 6 lug trucks in the boneyard, just wondering if they'd fit.
