Re: Six lug spacing on old vs. new wheels?

I am going the opposite way by putting a set of older truck ralley's on my 05 Yukon with 33X12.50X15 and a 6" lift. The wheels will fit except that the center hole is smaller on the new wheels because the hub size is smaller in the new trucks. The offset is also different usually 4" on the older stuff and like 6" on the new so 2" spacer and you are on your way!! Those Caddy wheels would be excellent on my K5, let me know if you pass on them!!

Escalade wheels are plentiful, at least it seems so. They run around $150 to $250 depending if they are polished or not. Some on ebay go for as much as $400 + shipping.

I never see an Escalade with stock wheels, so it makes sense why they seem to be everywhere for sale
