Will These Wheels Fit?

A guy's selling some 18" wheels off of a Canyon that I really want. Unfortunately, he lives on the other side of the state, so I'd like to find out for sure that they'll fit. The center hole is 3 7/8" across. I realize I may not be able to use the center caps on the rear, but it looks like my hubs are only 3.5" wide. So, these should fit, right?

According to Tire Rack and other places, these wheels are 6x139mm (6x5.5), so it's the right pattern.

Re: Will These Wheels Fit?

Sorry,... you are correct.
Same pattern,... but small center hole.
Wheel spacers might still be needed to help with the extreme backspacing of the Canyon wheeels, (and will allow you to run the factory centercap).

My previous post was wrong.
I was confusing these wheels with the oddball Trailblazer SS and Chevrolet SSR wheels.

No problem, I appreciate the help. Definitely easy to get those two mixed up.

Re: Will These Wheels Fit?

Just for future reference if anyone comes across this thread, Canyon/Colorado wheels won't fit. I finally got my front wheel pulled off tonight and 4.5", maybe a little less, is the maximum backspacing you can run on a Blazer. These wheels have somewhere around 5.5" of backspace.
