Will these rims work?

I have a 1987 chevy suburban, 2wd 1/2ton. I am wondering if these rims will work...I like the black rims style. But i know nothing about wheels/tires. I do plan on bagging my burb eventually.

I was under the assumtion that 1/2 ton fullsize trucks were 5 on 5, not 5 on 127/135. They have to be 5 on 5, but im no expert.

Re: Will these rims work?

I think they will fit but the backspace will be wrong. Contact the seller and tell him what you are putting them on. If they say they will fit and they do not, then you have some recourse. If you don't tell them in advance then your out of luck if they don't fit.

You should be concerned that the will tuck in too far in the rear...
