bolt pattern for a 72 C-20

Just curious, I never really paid attention to the bolt pattern spec for a C-20, but now I'm looking for new rims, I guess I need to verify this.

Does anyone know for sure what it is?

Thanks,
-Chuck

Thanks, I knew it was 8 bolts, and 6.5"...........is that the width?

The reason I am sasking all of this is to find out if there are any differences between 8-bolt patterns in this model, versus newer Chevy 8-bolt patterns.

Also other 8-bolt patterns I may see on e-bay etc.,

Isn't there a spec in millimeters about how far apart the bolt holes are?

Just wondering.

Thanks in advance for your assistance

-Chuck

All 8 lug patterns are the same (8x6.5) EXCEPT for Ford Super Duty's, which have the 8x170mm pattern. The 6.5" does not refer to the rim width, but I am not sure exactly what measurement it is for.

the 6.5" is the diameter of the bolt circle.
