Thoughts on converting to 5 lug
I’m sure this topic has been beat to death but I have searched and searched for some decent fitting wheels for my 67 C10. The nice ones seem to be mostly in 5 lug.
The first problem honestly is no one really makes a set of proper fitting wheels with correct BS unless you get into billet or custom rims. Which is big money.
The next issue is even though you can get factory rally’s modified the tire selections are pathetic at best. My ultimate choice would be reproduction truck Rally’s in 18” with different widths and backspacing. 18x8,9,10 would be nice. I do like the old school rally look vs the “15,000.00 truck with 5,000.00 wheels and tires” look.
All that aside, I’ve seen some guys swear you shouldn’t move to 5 lug. Unless you are loading down the truck, which I’m not, I don’t see the big deal.
