Looking at what I posted and just want to clarify that I was incorrect, it is not the 17" rim: it was a year change.

Starting in 2011 the pattern for 8 lug Chevrolet products went from 8 x 165.1mm, to 8 x 180mm.

Its a pretty subtle change, so subtle in fact that they really look like they would fit.

I monkeyed around with one for probably 15 minutes before realizing the difference. It was confusing to me because a change like that would seem to be something you do during a model change, or a clean sheet of paper design change. Instead, my 2010 Yukon XL is pretty much indistinguishable from a 2011, with the exception of the lugnuts being 15.1mm further apart.

Learn something new everyday with Chevys.
