This might be a dumb question

I'm looking at buying a 66 shortbox fleetside that is like new. Its all stock, except it had later Chevy wheels on it and I didn't look at the wheels that close. I just assumed they were 5 lugs but looking at the forum here and doing a search I'm not sure.

Did all 66 C10's come with 5 lug or 6 lug setups?

Thanks for the info

5 lug didn't get swaped in until 73.

Re: This might be a dumb question

On the newer 6 lugs, the bolt pattern is the same but you might run into the center hole size not large enough or the backspacing to be too much
