Do any current stock 6 lug rims fit 67-72 trucks ?
Just wondering if any current 6 lug stock Chevy/GM rims fit 67-72 trucks ? Looks to me the backspacing would be wrong but could be fixed with a spacer.
Looking for some input. Thanks |

All GM and Nissan 6 lug rims fit our bolt pattern. Hub size and back spacing are the key problems.

Re: Do any current stock 6 lug rims fit 67-72 trucks ?
from what i have found out that the lug pattern is the same...but the wheel studs are for steel wheels or shanked lug wheels(kinda short stud)...and the hub centers are to big for most of the newer wheels....i had to use the 6 lug 89 3/4 spindle coversion in the front and milled the hub centers on the back and drill the axles for the 14mm studs...not sure if this will help...

Thanks that does help, It seems that cheap nice stock wheel are everywhere on craigslist but the extra work and the backspacing may be more work then its worth.
I just bought some 6 lug 16`s, we,ll go with them for now. |

I tried some 17" 05 chevy Tahoe wheels on my 65, Bolt pattern was correct but the hub on my truck was quite a bit larger, didnt measure it but looked like more than a small modification to me. Mine still has stock drum brakes
