Trying to find wheels for 1963 C10

Why do the wheel charts I find skip the 1963 to 1966 1/2 ton trucks?
http://www.wheelsupport.com/chevrolet-gmc-bolt-pattern/

It looks looks the '67 to '87 1/2 ton 2x4's have a 5 lug pattern but my C10 has 6 lugs.
I need correct dimensions so I can order from Summit or or buy them from E-bay or some place else.

Anybody have a complete chart or can definitively describe the difference?

Re: Trying to find wheels for 1963 C10

I think all 6 lug wheels are the same bolt pattern for Chevy and Toyota. I know there are guys that run 17" steel wheels from newer Toyota trucks. They just have to use a spacer. OR you could look up an earlier year like 60-62.


Not sure if that helps...

1960 thru 1970 (maybe even in the 50s...not sure on them) 2wd trucks all use a 6 lug x5.5 bolt pattern, with 7/16" lugs. The 4x4s in the 71 thru 87 years use the same wheels as our 2wds, just the rims have clearance for the disk brakes. The 88-98 4wd trucks are the same bolt patters, but the center hole on the wheels are slightly smaller and may not clear our hubs. Most all Nissian and Toyoa trucks have the same bolt patern. Most will fit ours, although some of the newer ones also have the small hub hole in the wheel that may creat a clearnace issue. The 88 & newer also have a lot of inward offset and may look funny or have clearance issue on the a-arms or innner wheel tubs.

What I'm afraid of is not knowing what the max back space can be. The newer Toyotas and Chevys look to have rims that are flat on the outside, not semi deep dish so if I don't want to use a spacer I need to measure the backspace on any newer rim I find. I still wonder why fitment charts call out for '64 thru '87 and not before. Could it be the backspace or maybe nothing significant?
