Re: new guy with a couple of questions

you will need to specify if the truck is 1/2 ton or 3/4.

Re: new guy with a couple of questions

Since you say 15" I assume you are talking 10-series. There were no 8" wheels from the factory. Some were 7" but I think most were 6 or maybe 6 1/2. I think maybe the 7s were on 4wds. I'm not 100% sure because I am primarily a 3/4t 4wd guy. Definitely not 8,though.

Re: new guy with a couple of questions

I agree with Tim. I am thinking 6 or 6.5 too. I believe the factory 16" 5 lug wheels I have are only 6 or 6.5 wide as well. Are you wanting a picture of full wheel covers of poverty caps?
