6 lug rims
wondering if anyone had any good online sites for the 6x5.5 lugs rims. Most of the popular sites dont have much for the 6 lugers. Really would like to find some torq thrust or super sports in 6 lug but anyway just looking for more choice.
Thanks for any help

Re: 6 lug rims
I'm in the same boat as you. I really wanted to run some American Racing torque thrusts but I don't think they make them in 6 lug from looking at there website. I have considered converting to 5 lug wheels since there are many more options available.

Re: 6 lug rims
I've seen TT2's in 17". Centerline wheels has some 6 lug rims. That's what mine are.

Re: 6 lug rims
look in the 4X4 section of rims, and truck specific wheel venues.
While there's no genie TTII's, I'm willing to bet, there's a 6 lug clone out there. |

Re: 6 lug rims
Here is a 6 lug option and is what I ordered for my truck, should be here in a week or two. They are boyd coddington smootie ll's. I already had 6 lug disks on the front and didn't want to switch everything.

Re: 6 lug rims
Question: Will the aftermarket wheels that fit the newer GM full-size trucks with 6-lugs, also fit ours? There is a TT2 that has 6 lugs, I believe. Wheel Vintiques, Summit Racing, Tire Rack....try their websites.

Re: 6 lug rims
The late model rims have the same diameter lug pattern, but the center hole isn't as big as our early rims, and I think the lugs are different size/thread.
