Ralleys...last question...really!

Did Chevrolet or GMC ever make 16-inch ralleys? Can I use 2-1/2 inch drop spindles with 15-inch ralleys and still get the clearance I need on a disc brake front end?

No 16" rallys, and yes 15" rallys will work with the drop. Stockton Wheel in CA makes 16" rallys but they are proud of them and the last time I called to ask a few questions the guy that answered the phone wasn't the least bit friendly or helpful. I made up my mind to spend my money elsewhere. Wheel Vintiques also makes 16" rallys and thay are friendly and helpful.

That's what I thought...I will talk to my son about needing 16's. I just think he likes the looks of them but I know we can find a good combination that will please him and fit the truck. Larger wheels are cool but are they really worth twice the dollars? Not for my truck!
