Re: ? about Hummer wheels

are you sure the H3 wheels will fit , I thought they were the same as a trailblazer and they have a different 6 lug bolt pattern. The H2 are 8 lug and will fit a 3/4 ton

Yes they are 6 x 5.5 (139.7 x 6 ) I'm not sure how to fine out back spacing. The offset is 25 if that's the same thing. The thing is the hub is 106mm on the rims but is like 90mm on the truck. Should I just try to sell them or can I get something to make them work?

Re: ? about Hummer wheels

I`ve seem plenty of wheels work that did not ride on the center hole.The back-spacing is the measurement from back of mounting suface on wheel center to inner bead/rim.

Re: ? about Hummer wheels

offset is the difference between the backspace and the center of the rim. It's either positive or negative. Backspace is your distance from the back of the rim to the back of the center lug area. Maybe 5 inches or so?

Re: ? about Hummer wheels

I would unbolt a wheel from your truck and try the H3 wheel before I spent another dime on them. Like said above, the H3 is 6 on five, not 6 on 5.5 like our trucks. I just bought a set of Escalade wheels (18") and was looking at a set of wheels that where from the trailblazer/H3 platform and was told they would not fit. For wheel adaptors, go to ebay and search wheel spacers/adapters.
