Not sure , I bought them for my son in law at the Goodguys car show. I think this was the guy on Ebay that had them before but I only see the 1/2" ones now. E-mail him and he should have what you need.

Some others on Ebay, check with the seller to make sure that they will work.

Could you run the new chevy center caps and those lug nuts on aftermarket rims?

sorry i've been away from my own thread for so long, but i have some info that may help most of you that want to run the late model steelies...

you'll need special aftermarket lugs... i got mine from lugnut king. he's usually at pomona and long beach (for you local guys). i have his business card somewhere at home. PM me if you need his number...

also, the stock caps won't clear the dana rears. you can find dually caps. they're awesome. here's a pic from page 3 of this thread...

Just got my new rims and tires put on today. They are 265/75/16 Michelin LTX MS wheels on 16x8 Ion Alloys 171 series wheels. The whole set cost more than the truck did.:lol:

Wow Mayo, those pics are ginormous!

I probably have a pic of mine in here already, but I actually used it as a truck today so I snapped a shot. Stock 8 luggers.

Sorry about that, I forgot to shrink them down after I got them off of my camera.

Re: 8 lug wheels - what's on YOUR truck?
 
Thought I'd get in on this since I'm (once again!!) changing wheels on my K2500. My '72 showed up when I was 4 or 5 with 16.5s on it but dad bought junkyard 16's to replace them. Took about 2 years to find good caps but those were on it with 245/65/16 up until about a year ago. The steelies and caps came off and a set of 2010 2500HD rims went on with the same rubber. Cut the centers out of the front caps, ordered enough lug nuts for a full set + 8 extra and put em on. My brother in law wants em for his '06 1 ton single wheel so I'm trading them to him for a set of American Racing (look like Mickey Thompson Classic II wheels) with a set of 60% 265/75/16 Goodyear Wranglers. Now I'm gonna have a whoooole buncha extra lug nuts layin around but oh well....I'll try to get a pic on later with the steelies and the HD rims...still waitin on the newer ones!

Still one of the best looking wheels for these classic trucks.

Those are great. Probably what I'll end up with once I find some.

Yeah i love them, picked them up fairly cheap on CL. Want to find some new tires, 16.5" is an awkward size tho.

Not sure how they'd look on our era trucks, but I liked this wheel enough to take a picture of it a couple of years ago. And yes, that's my finger on the lens...
