New Suburban Wheel fitment

This may be a dumb question but has anyone tried these wheels? I have always liked them but I don't know their bolt pattern, I know they are 6-lug, but I don't know the measurements and back spacing.

I think they would look pretty good on the right truck.



Thanks
Jonathan

I have wheels off a 99 z71 and the hub for a 70 truck is about half an inch larger than the 99. Either the wheel or hub will require machining. Using a spacer would be the not so recommended method.

You would need a spacer to get the offset even close to correct. A spacer is the only way to run these late model 6 lug wheels. I would stay away from them for that reason.

Re: New Suburban Wheel fitment

yep, not a bolt on. If you were to 'fix' the center hole, then the wheel would be tucked in enough to look way wrong, plus, they'd rub real bad.
I agree with the "wouldn't run spacers" comment
