Wheels 69 gmc 3/4
Looking for opinions for wheels guys.
Option 1 use oem wheels and buy refurbished center caps. (Dog dish type) Option 2 American Racing Outlaw II's ( Will the offset be correct?) Option 3 1999-2009 Chrome OEM wheels with GMC center caps This is a 3/4 ton so it is 8 lug. I don't want to use spacers or anything so looking for ideas of direct swap wheels that someone else has done without problems Mike

Re: Wheels 69 gmc 3/4
I had the 99-04? Aluminum wheels on my 3/4 ton. The rear center caps wouldn't fit with the Dana 60 rearend, the hubs stuck out too far, so I picked up a set of 1" spacers and then they fit. Also the wheels dont have the right offset so they tuck in too much for me, I added a 1" spacer and that brought them out to almost flush with the bed side.

Re: Wheels 69 gmc 3/4
It's two wheel drive? I have a set of weld wheels (w tires) that were on my burb. 16x8 with 33s bfg all terrians. They looked good, I just decided to go a different route. I should mention.... my burb is 4x4.

The factory dog dish caps always look good. A set mid 80's 16" wheels are plentiful and have no fit issues.

Re: Wheels 69 gmc 3/4
What about some H2 wheels? Put the newer style truck center caps on for a nice looking cheap combo.
They are 17" x 8.5" and will fit good under the rear... not sunk in like the newer stock skinnies!

Re: Wheels 69 gmc 3/4
I had the polished Alcoas on my 70 GMC 3/4 ton. I think they are a timeless wheel design that looks good on anything. When I sold the truck, I put the Alcoas on my '02 GMC 2500 HD, and now they reside on my '85 Crew Cab farm truck.
