New wheels and tires on the project today - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Thanks for eveyones input on wheel and tire sizes, and the lead on 6 lug rims. These came in today and quickly got bolted on:

I would like to know what the stock wheel stud length is because I need something about 1/2" longer in the rear.

Actually a member here steered me to them...they're an "Off" brand but the quality looks great

Shak · 05-04-2008, 05:18 PM

I am good with "OFF" brand, that usually means less expensive. What off brand are they?

chrislehr · 05-04-2008, 06:00 PM

Look good to me.

Congrats..

Sold on ebay. The guy was nice and responsive by email. I am probably going to be picking up a set soon.

By the way, what size tires did you go with and did you do 18's front and 20's rear?

**special-K** · 05-05-2008, 04:28 AM

Pop a stud out and measure it ya dang fool.

I`m in rare form tonight,I can explain.I think?

c10crazy · 05-05-2008, 05:41 AM

Nice! Can you measure the how deep it is from the face to the edge?. Looks like a good 5-6" deep!

BarryB · 05-05-2008, 06:50 AM

The good thing about Off brand wheels. Chances are in your favor of not seeing the exact setup on another truck.
