Re: Can I use these wheels?????
not totally unheard of for people to change out 2wheel drivers to the 6 lug axels. i know a guy who has one (of course, he cusses the guy who he bought it from, "no idea why he thought that was a good idea".

Re: Can I use these wheels?????
if you hog out the center hole, the wheels will bolt right up to the stock 6 lug hubs.
The wheels still look stupid tucked in that far inboard though. Quote:

Re: Can I use these wheels?????
now that i didnt know. reason the memory of my friend telling me this was... the front end of that truck is 5 lug, and the rear is 6. apparently the guy he got it from was halfway done from switching, and gave up.

Re: Can I use these wheels?????
Looks like the guy in the auction listed sells "take off" tires and wheels. It was a natural for him to put those on there.
IMHO they don't look that great.
