6 lug rims
Hey guys, i've been gone for a while, but here's a question...
I turned my old Long bed and frame into a trailer, using a 6 lug axle i had laying around, but i've had trouble finding wheels that will fit, due to the large hub. I think these will work, but confirmation would be appreciated. Series: Cragar Delux 69 Wheel Diameter: 15 in. Wheel Width (in): 6.000 in. Wheel Material: Steel Backspacing (in): 3.500 in. Offset: 0.00mm Wheel Construction:1-piece Lug Nut Seat Style: Conical seat - 60 degree Hub Centric : No Center Bore Diameter (in): 4.280 in. Center Bore Diameter (mm): 108.71mm  *STOCK PHOTO*

Re: 6 lug rims
Not sure on the hub sizes but I know they are larger than most newer rims, but if you have some steelies already, just bore the center hole out more. Take a dremel to it and go to town. Done that a few times with steelies to get them to fit since they aren't hub centric anyways.

Re: 6 lug rims
Yeah, I have a couple rims from a 90's k1500, and started doing that, but ALOT of material has to be removed, which proved to be way more work than it was worth.

Re: 6 lug rims
The rim in the photo is a five lug. You are looking for six lug correct? Truck rallyes from a 73 and up will work. You can buy them on Craig's list for $20 - 25 each. Clean up and a coat of paint and they look pretty good.

Re: 6 lug rims
I'm done searching for rims locally. i've spent almost 2 years looking, with no luck.
I'm out of time so to speak, i'm going to pull the trigger, and buy a set. i just wanted to verify the backspacing and center bore are correct The rims in question are 6 lug, the photo is just a "stock photo" cragar had on their site.
