just toying with the idea of some 20" rims on my c20

I've been wanting to do something different for wheels on my ol C20. I saw these wheels on Craigslist and I think they would be pretty slammin on my truck... what do you guys think? They are off an avalanche. they are 9.5" wide with 10mm offset.... so I think they would fit OK. Love it or hate it, both opinions are welcome. I'm still on the fence about the larger new school wheel look.

Do a search. I believe but could be wrong the newer six lugs don't fit our trucks. I believe the center of the wheels have to be modified. Alot of people in the past wanted to put on Silverado wheels which would not work. Might want to look into that.

those are 8 lug, as is the OP's C/20.
I have no problems with the 20 inch part... I just wonder if those wheels will look good on anything

They may look alright depending on the color of your truck.

From my past reads 5.6" backspace might be a bit much.
