Re: wheels

All aftermarket 6 lug wheels (6 x 5.5" b.c) will be drilled for the larger hubs. They are done this way so that there is still room to install a push through center cap with enough room to still clear the hubs.

The biggest issue you may find (with aftermarket aluminum wheels) is that there is not enough wheel stud sticking through to get sufficient thread engagement from the lug nuts. For this I highly recommend the "ET" style lug nuts.
