16x10 wheels on a 71 K-10? Will they fit?

[johnmix2]

Looking at putting a 4" Lift with 16x10 wheels with 4.5 backspacing. Are there any issues with the 16s rubbing the drive train components. I know all of the outlets only list 15" wheels for 67-88 (I assume because that was stock) and LMC Trucks has a few 16" wheels for sale but it says they will not fit 4WD? Anyone know if there are issues?

Thanks for any insight.

You probably should have posted this in the 4X4 section along with your year of truck, disk or drum brakes, and is it a K10 or K20 ect. I don't have a definitive answer for you, i saw one post where it looked like a 16" rim would clear the caliper but don't recall the rim width or back spacing or if it was 2wd or 4wd.

OOps - I thought I was in the 4x4 section. This is my first post. Title says 71 K-10. It's a 1971K-10 1/2 ton 4WD. It has disc brakes. Thanks,

Ok my bad on the title, guess its front disks then.

Oh, you could ask a mod to move this thread for you, they don't like double posts
