Dodge van steel wheels - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Anyone run Dodge steel wheels on their Chevy/GMC?
Model #2059 - second from the bottom on this page:

Does anyone know if Chevy 3/4 ton dog dish hub caps will fit on these rims?
They appear to be a good alternative to the 16.5 steel wheels.

I actually have Ford van wheels on 2 of mine, they are 16x7 and the GM hub caps fit just fine, the Ochre one has LT245/75/16 tires and the Green 4x4 has LT285/75/16 tires

I found 4-new take offs 16.7 dodge wheels for 80.00 dollars.They work great on my 1-ton chevy.

I know...I know digging this thread up from the grave, but wanted to ask what year Ford or Dodge wheels are these? I'm a newbie to this 8 lug stuff.

**special-K** · 05-22-2018, 11:28 AM

The Ford ones will be marked "Accuride" if they are 7" SAE pre-96 wheels. Anything earlier will fit. Any Dodge wheel for hubcaps, until they changed the style to multi-slots and center caps, with wheels painted silver. This type of 8-lug wheel was interchangeable on GMs until metric sizes came out. Just have to make sure they are 8 on 6.5" and not metric, which is very close but different.

**Steeveedee** · 05-22-2018, 03:27 PM

Uh-oh. I bought an 8-lug 16" wheel from a local wrecking yard for a spare. I think it came from a late-model Suburban. Guess I'd better verify it will fit before I go camping again. :/

**leddzepp** · 05-22-2018, 03:52 PM

The E350 vans used them until the early 2000’s I believe. Mine are stamped both Ford and Accuride.

**special-K** · 05-22-2018, 04:32 PM

Yeah, the same wheel was used on Vans after '96. Vans never went metric.

I don't think any late 8-lug Suburbans were metric. The steel style from 88-on is SAE and so is that first alloy design from '99-on. They stopped making 8-lug Suburbans... bummer.

I picked up 4 E350 wheels from a 90' van. Only thing I noticed is they don't have the nubs for dog dish type caps.

**special-K** · 05-22-2018, 05:58 PM

At some point after '96 Vans stopped coming with hubcaps, either open wheels or plastic wheel covers 0n steel wheels. So, the centers changed by losing the nubs. That's why I say be careful referring to these as simply van wheels.

**Steeveedee** · 05-23-2018, 12:05 AM

After having surgery on both hands last year, I'm not up to wrenching the lug nuts on my truck, yet.

That's a long way from being able to pick up a SBC short block (not just a bare block) and heave it into a truck bed by myself. Guess I'll have to have one of my sons make the check, and call AAA if I'm on the road and have a flat. But I guess the alternative to getting old is worse...though I wouldn't know!
