Does anybody know if the 1999 thru 2006 Chevy 6 bolt rims will fit on a 1970 C-10?

The center hub opening is too small from what I have heard. The opening will have to be opened up some.

If it's a C10 it should have a 5 bolt pattern...

If it's a K10 the bolt pattern on both is 6x5.5, but the center opening is going to be too small, as mentioned. I found a local machine shop that could open up the center hub on some motor home wheels for me... I think it was $45 to $50 per wheel.

Not until 71 & disc brakes came along.

In that case, it should fit, with the proper machining. You also need to consider the length of the wheel studs. You may need to swap them out for longer ones if you're using aluminum wheels.
