6 lug steel wheels

Does anyone know where I can get some 16" or 17" 6 lug steel wheel that accommodates a 10 1/8" stock cap?

Re: 6 lug steel wheels

I know there are factory ones to be found, but I have been looking for awhile with little success. I have contacted Stockton Wheel in CA and Rally America (Jimmie) also in CA about making them. 6 bolt 16 in steel wheels that hold our factory caps. I will have to save for quite a long time$$$$.

If you are ok with 16 inch wheels they are out there. I had a set of them that came off a Jeep J10 4X4. They were 16 X 6's with 6 lugs.

Yes, they are out there. I bought a set of 15's just in case I did not find 16 x6 wheels but after a year and a half I finally found some. They came off of a early 80's 4 wheel drive

Re: 6 lug steel wheels

I asked them to find and use their 6 lug centers. They had to "build them up" to fit into their new 16" rims. I asked for 7" wide rims so I had more tire options. Sans paint and shipping price was more or less $200 per. These are great people and have heard nothing but the best about Rally America. I have not followed up on Stockton for no particular reason.

17" never manufactured by GM, need to be custom made=expensive. All OEM 16" 6 lug wheels are hard to find locally. Two versions, pre 71 drum brake wheel and post 71 disc brake wheel. Most are narrow "Billy Jack" type wheels 5 1/2-6" wide. Factor in shipping costs when buying non local. Here is a link to an OEM wheel company that might have some.

Re: 6 lug steel wheels

It looks like I need to find 71 and up wheels to fit disc brakes. Does anyone know where I can get any?

Re: 6 lug steel wheels
