late model wheels on an 86
Will these 16" wheels fit on a 86 4x4? I found a good deal on some 90's model alum 6 lug wheels with new nittos that I would love to have, mainly for the tires but would run the wheels if they would work. I know i would have to modify the front caps for the hubs but is there anything else i'm missing?

Re: late model wheels on an 86
if its the same lug pattern they should match up, but you will have to get new lug nuts

Re: late model wheels on an 86
Measure the center holes to ensure that they will fit over your hubs before you buy. I know that web page says they will fit, but I recall the newer trucks having a smaller center hole than our square bodies. Let us know if they fit.

Re: late model wheels on an 86
I'm pretty sure the offset is also different and the newer wheels have an extra inch of back spacing, I'm not 100% on this though.

Re: late model wheels on an 86

Re: late model wheels on an 86
I have tryed this on a 4x4. The offset is a little off so they are tucked too far in and the fronts will not go on over the hub.

Re: late model wheels on an 86
So your saying the wheel won't fit up to the hub because of the offset correct. That is a problem.

Re: late model wheels on an 86
The center hub hole is too small.. you would have to machine it out to make it work.

Re: late model wheels on an 86
no I was saying the front hub will not fit threw the hole in the rim AND the offset is off. but can be corrected with spacers. I dont know what you would do about the hub fitting the hole tho.
