Nope, the factory ones do not. The center hole on a 10 bolt axle is smaller then on the rear axle that is under your truck. I guess you could machine the wheels to open up the center hole. I bought a set of steel wheels from for friends 06 chevy, and found out they didnt fit due to this problem.

American Racing, Weld Wheels and Eagle Alloy makes wheels that will fit the '60-'66 Chevy trucks with six lug and eight lug hubs. I just bought a set of 17" eight lug Eagle Alloy rims for my '66 Chevy K20. I also have a few other trucks with aftermarket six lug rims. There are countless aftermarket wheel styles available for these trucks. Here a few examples:

If you bore out the center hole for clearence , Then could you use like late model tahoe or gms rim's ?? or would there still be another problem ??

It will work but the offset is a little shallow!!!

If you machine the center hole, I dont see why it wouldnt work. Just check the caliper clearance up front, the fender clearance, and you should be good to go! Just be sure to a have a spare bored for if you get a flat.

most after market rims as mentioned by LILRed will work. They uasaly come with the larger center bore, and hub centric rings.

Ive got stock drum brakes, There are a lot of good deals on factory take off wheels & tires ! 16" rims should clear the drums , or would I need spacer's for the front not to rub against something ?? What's the offset difference between stock and a late model chevy ?
