andyone happen to have a pic of what the slotted aluminum wheels look like from the 88 and up Chevy's?? My old boss at the auto ranch called me and says he has a set for my truck but I would like to know what they look like before I make the drive out there.

I think the backspacing might bite ya on those. . . . .

Racedvl -- What kind of issues would the backspacing bring up, and how could a guy fix it? I've got a set of free 05 Chevy Alloy wheels coming my way, and I'd hate to not have them work...

They should fit without a problem if your talking this style, the Chrome SS 15x8 wheels. You'll need to get special lug nuts (and caps if he doesn't have them). If my 96 ever dies out and I switch to 5 lugs this is what I am running on mine. I got the special lugnuts from Stockton Wheels.

This is a board members truck, I just don't remember who. The caps are expensive if you buy them new ($25 each with the plastic black lug covers) I found several in swapmeets.

I think they would look super sharp on the mutt with the GMC chrome grill. Add some 31x10.50's and you'll have a monster look.

I know that some of the 4x4 rims are pretty flush with the outside of the tire. Meaning there is pretty much no front dish to them.
