I like them better than the rallies, but how wide are they? I know the factory 6-lug aluminum wheels are only 7 inches wide, but the rallies are 8 inches wide.

Re: gmc only
They are the same as the 6 lug, I wish they were 8", 255/70/15 "ballon" too much on the side walls.

I think they are these. They are conversion lights that change it over from the sealed beam style to the H4 style.

They're not the same truck, just the same parts.

Here is my 84 CCSB. It is a work in progress. Before, as a 4WD, and after, as a 2WD.
