newer style 3/4 ton wheels on 70 c20.

was wondering what kind of fitment issues i may run into if trying to mount new style after market wheels on my 70 c 20. this is assuming i have the front swapped with discs. i think the lug pattern is same but my worrys is hub diameter or bearing cap sizes.

thanks

It's fairly common to run late model OEM wheels on the C-20's. I don't see that aftermarket wheels would pose an issue.

I'm running '07 GMC 2500HD wheels on my stock '69 C-20 and they bolt right on once you buy the right lug nuts.

what are the right wheel lugs to get? a buddy of mine has some 24" 6 lug and i wondered would they fit. im sure the hub diameter needs to be enlarged. im not sure if spacer's are needed though. like tucnnuts truck for instance...http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/a...40019126...are they a bolt on job or what???
