Cadillac Wheels.
Got a quick question for some of you guys. My 67 has the stock six lug setup, and the 2007 Cadillac wheels are six lug as well. Now from what I've read and found out the bolt patterns are the same, but will everything else work with what I have? Will the Cadillac wheels bolt on and tuck into the fender wells, will they fit over the hubs? My truck is a 2WD, lowered 3/4, and the rims are the 18" stock rims. Heres some info I found on the Cadillac rims.
S.No - 1 Year - 2007 Make - Cadillac Model - Escalade Bolt Pattern - 6x5.50in - 6x139.7mm Vehicle Offset - High OE Wheel Size - OE 18 & 22in Center Bore - 78 STUD Size - 14mmx1.5 Size Up - 23-26in Wheels Offset - 25-38mm Thanks, -D

Re: Cadillac Wheels.
I think they should fit the off sets maybe a little off those it will depend on the wheel it self though. All your new trucks went to 6 lugs. Tahoe's, GMC everything.
I like these myself. These are 20" wheels. I have them on my 07 Tahoe.

Re: Cadillac Wheels.
Newer chevy/GM 6 lug wheels do not work unless you machine the hub holes wider. It can be done though from what Ive read

Re: Cadillac Wheels.
and they'll be tucked in too far. The offset/backspace is way off. The front ones will probably rub way before the wheels turned all the way.

Re: Cadillac Wheels.
Rears will rub for sure, fronts you may get away with if you machine the hubs. I have a set of 17s off a newer GM truck, the front with machined hubs would've cleared pretty well at full lock, but the rears woulda needed 1.5in spacers
