suburban wheels
Have any of you considered using the steel spare wheel from about a 97 Burb? They are 16 x 6.5 I think. They are very similar to the older truck rally and 6 hole. With 6.5 width and offset they might go well with a bagged 6 lugger.

Re: suburban wheels
I believe the hub openings are too small to fit our trucks. Someone else will chime in on this.

Re: suburban wheels
I took a $20 late model set of Chevy wheels and modified them to fit the ol' girl. The new trucks have a 14mm lug opening that I drilled out to fit the 7/16" and had to put in 1/2" spacers in the rear and 1/4" in the front to correct offset issues.
When it was all done my wife told me to go buy a new set of chrome wheels for my birthday! She just let me do the whole project to keep me busy.
