Escalade Wheels on 67-72 6 lug 2wd?? Will they Fit? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Has any one done this? Have pictures? What is the bolt pattern of a 6 lug C10?

If the bolt pattern is the same, you will have to get some wheel spacers to allow the wheels to fit. The backspacing is different on newer vehicles, so you need to push the wheels out a bit more for them to bolt on. No clue on the lug pattern though.

I believe that they'll fit. I've seen the 6 lug aluminum chevy wheels on a '69 before. The escalade and chevy bolt pattern are the same.

Confirmed fit....the Chevy 6-lug bolt pattern is the same on '67's and new Silverados. Difference is backspacing. I believe it's 6 on 5 1/2" pattern.

problem with the new rims is that the center hub hole is too small on the rims. the bolt pattern is the same but the center hole wont slip over the hub.I tried steel rims from a 2001 gmc sierra and they wouldnt work.

Doesn't sound like anything a die grinder wouldn't fix!

Well it looks like I'll just have to put 5 lug drop spindle on front.

The bolt pattern is the same. You would have to mill out the center holes and buy special 1/2" by 60 degree lug nuts for them to fit though. Another problem you will come across is the center caps. The front bearing caps on our trucks stick out too far for the caps to be used. Now if you use wheel spacers that might work. I have a set of new take off Cadillac Escalade wheels for sale also for $450.00 if you are interested. I had them on ebay and the winning bidder backed out of the deal. WES www.ClassicHeartbeat.com
