IN WTB 15 x 8 6-lug steel wheels - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**DANTIP** · 11-13-2017, 09:44 PM

Beginning to look for a set of 6-lug 15" x 8" steel wheels that accept the dog-dish center cap. This is for a '71 K10.

Thx!

May have a set of 4 to part with. Would be in the $400 plus ship range if you want me to look them over. They will probably need blasting and paint.

I have a set of 6 lug 15x8 steel rally wheels with center caps and trim rings. I actually think there is 5 of them total. Only 4 caps and rings. I would be interested in selling them or trading them. Do you have anything to trade?

Would standard 6 lug wheels widened to 8" wheels be desirable ,a guy not far from me does a great job widening wheels . Im about to get him to widen a set for a K10 we just bought .

Dug them out today for pics. May have some pitting on a couple after blasting. I don't see any curb rash on them, but can look them over again. Let me know either way.

I'm going to pass for now. I'm told the wheels are now being reproduced.

Just FYI, all the 15x8 OE wheels that I have had are 3.875" backspacing. Those are 4.25". Not sure if being set in 3/8" more will make a difference or not to clearance at a tie rod end or another component.

You want to be careful with the Vintique wheels... they have a 4.25 BS where the Factory has 3.75 BS... That can be a problem... My 67 2wd can't take more that the 3.75...

Just a Heads Up...

sambrutay · 11-27-2017, 08:58 AM

also can be had with 4" back spacing
