TEXAS 68,
Not sure what wheel you are talking about, but I think that all the wheels since 99 are basically the same, except for 15, 16, or 17". I have a set of 03 wheels, and the bolt pattern is correct, but the center hole is to small. I have a scrap wheel that I played with and enlarged the center hole. The wheels look real sharp on the rear, but rub on the front. I wish there was a solution, maybe a disk swap on the front. Has anyone else tried the newer Chevy wheels? If I were to put a six lug disc conversion on the front would they work then?
