Re: 22" Gm Transport wheels

The center hub on the stock steel wheels specs out right at 3.5" and my bore on the transits is 3.7". There's definitely some room to tighten that up but I think you're going to have to be really sure you can get the bore centered. I can see on my wheels that the bore is ever so slightly off center, so it's a good thing the bore isn't centering the wheel on the hub because it would probably vibrate.

Re: 22" Gm Transport wheels

I have a 1998 Chevy that is a light duty 3/4 ton. I plan on using the engine, transmission and rear Axle in my 64. Will the transport wheels need to be bored for a 1998 6 lug rear end? I am also wondering what how close the width is on the 1998 rear end is vs the 1964.
Of coarse I can measure it but I am not to that point yet.
Thanks

Re: 22" Gm Transport wheels

I'm pretty sure it will be 3-4" wider than your original differential.

Cool Re: 22" Gm Transport wheels

Hi Everyone.
I got my 22" transports from kijiji from a guy in red deer

I used the hubcap clips from the guy on instagram. they were easy to put on

I used just regular "dog dish" hubcaps, baby moons, got them from a place in Edmonton on Calgary trail, just south of 63 Ave, hubcap king or something like that.

the 22s have been great.

I have a CPP 5-6 drop. no rubbing except hard bumps in the rear. I think the tires touch the inner wheel well. other than that its all great.

and all I did to fit them on the rear was a 1/2" spacer. I didn't have to bore the center out.

Re: 22" Gm Transport wheels

1/2" spacer won't work without extending the lugs. There wouldn't be enough material and it would be really dangerous driving like that. Stock studs only have 3/4" material on the outside of the drum.

I've been selling them for about 4 years now.

Can you PM me the price for a set or four? We can figure the shipping later.

Re: 22" Gm Transport wheels

Right on. Unfortunately 1/4" isn't enough to clear the bed on a fleetside. I'm not sure about a stepside.

Re: 22" Gm Transport wheels

Quick question, I just picked up a set of transports. They came with 10.5" hubcaps and what I believe are old style very clips.is there a pattern available or pdf download so I can make sure I get them exact? I don't want to wobble.

Re: 22" Gm Transport wheels

Yeah but unfortunately for me it was nearly 2 years after I had mine done. No regrets though, I’m happy with the quality of work that the shop did on my wheels. The powder coat and revered wheels came out really nice.

Re: 22" Gm Transport wheels

I ended up with a set for free so figured I would mess with them and see how they looked. In the rear I cut the welds and "pressed" them out and flipped them. For boring the centers out I just used 2 hole saws on 1 arbor, the smaller one centers on the oe wheel hole and outer cuts the new hole. And hit the local import shop for bug hubcap clips for 2 bucks each.
