Re: Help me recreate this wheel/hub cap combo

I mentioned widening because the wheels you showed on the other member's truck are 8" rallyes. I figured it's that look you are after. Now it sounds like that is what you need to run the size tire you want. I ran 285/75-16s on the stock '92 K3500 wheels (6.5"), but 7-8" is best. The second picture I showed is the same type wheel I just described widened to 8" or maybe 9". You get the four vents same as the traditional OEM style from years before. Those center caps are 88-98 GM factory style. Not sure if they clear Dana60 hubs. They clear 14-bolts for sure. There is a taller one that came on duallys. There are held on by special lug nuts that have a second set of threads for plastic lugs that hold the caps on. OEM are 14mm but there are 9/16" ones made for pre-88s.
