Re: wheel bolt pattern question.

What year of truck do you have? The 5 x 5 pattern is what all '71-'87 C10's have from the factory. I have read that the '70 Impala had a 5 x 4.75 bolt pattern disc rotor. But I have not seen confirmation on that. You might have to take a common 5 x 5 rotor and drill the 5 x 4.75 pattern in it.

Re: wheel bolt pattern question.

I was told to keep the 5 on 5 until the truck went on a diet. I would also recommend going with the 1/2"-5/8" wheel studs.
