6 Lug rims that will fit on 67-70 trucks.

Everybody list rims that will fit on our 6 lug trucks.
I know from experience that rims from the 73-87 4-wheel drives fit with no issues.
Also rims that fit the Nissan Hardbody body style 4x4's will fit ours.
New model GM 6-lugs have the same lug pattern but the center hole has to be machined to fit and backspacing may be a problem.
That's all I can personally attest to, so everyone else feel free to chime in.

My stepside has aluminum slots there were from a 70's Jeep Cherokee 4X4 so lots of choices from them. The Jeeps back then had the same lug pattern as they were built from alot of GM parts. (I think they used GM brake setup such as drums, calipers???)

I don't have a clue if any of the newer Jeeps are the same as I detest newer vehicles and pay them no attention.

I'm pretty sure all the six lug patterns are the same, except for some of the new Dodge. The big difference will be the center hub hole and the back spacing. Other than that they just about all bolt on according to some wheel chart I have.

6 on 5-1/2"
Chevrolet - all to '48
Chevy/GMC - P.U., van to '70
- 4x4 P.U., Blazer '71-'89
- LUV 2WD '72-'84
Dodge - D-50, Ram 50 P.U. '79-'87
Ford - Courier PU '72-'84
Mazda - P.U. '72-'89
Nissan/Datsun - P.U.. Pathfinder '67-'89
Toyota - SR5, 4WD P.U., Landcruiser, 4-Runner (some) to '89

The back spacing on the new Gm rims(88-now) is off by 1.5". Depends on your setup on the front and the width of the tires if they will rub on hard turns.
