I believe the fitment of these wheels were originally for the large GM cars (Caprice and Impalas, which just so happen to be the same as the light duty 1" truck rotors) and now they seem to be trying to make them fit the HD brakes, any tooling change takes time and money. Like it has been said a few times there are other wheels that fit these trucks without modification. I'm not sure that the company intentionally sold these wheels claiming they fit the trucks, now some of the distributors on the other hand........
