16" 6 hole steel wheels? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

BLAZERMAN · 11-06-2002, 12:37 AM

Did chevy ever use a 16" 6 hole steel wheel [plain not rally] that will accept the 67-72 stlye hubcap [not the full wheel cover]. And if so what years to look for?

Blazer1970 · 11-06-2002, 09:55 AM

16 inch wheels were an option on some of the trucks of this era. They are very, very, rare though.

BLAZERMAN · 11-06-2002, 06:37 PM

I doubt I would have any luck in finding a set of those.

Anyone else know of any 16" 6 hole steel wheels.

**Palf70Step** · 11-06-2002, 06:51 PM

Might find some from a newer silverado. I'm sure not all 2wds come/came with aluminumn wheels.?

mooneyes · 11-06-2002, 07:30 PM

88 & up 4x4 1/2 ton had them... but looked some what like a rally

teeitup · 11-06-2002, 07:31 PM

Hey Rob, I got 4 of them that came off the blue burb, come on down. I just want the tires off them. Randy

71k5 · 11-06-2002, 08:06 PM

Mooneyes - - do you know how wide the '88 16" wheels are? I'm looking for some 16" wheels for my 71 Blazer for a set of winter tires...
Or does anyone else know of some plain 16" steel wheels that will fit a '71 4x4?

mooneyes · 11-06-2002, 08:23 PM

i would guess about 7" there pretty skinny

71k5 · 11-06-2002, 09:19 PM

That's just what I'm looking for... Thanks!

adamls · 11-06-2002, 10:36 PM

Is this what your looking for? If so I got a set of 5, 4 with the hub caps, with a good set of tread I am willing to get rid of cheap.

Hooter · 11-06-2002, 10:45 PM

well there ya go, ask and you will receive

BLAZERMAN · 11-06-2002, 11:34 PM

Adamls, That looks like the ones and if you were closer I would take them but teeitup is only about 30 miles away. Thanks

Randy, sent you a PM

71k5 · 11-07-2002, 01:27 PM

ADAMLS - -
What are you asking for the wheels? Any idea waht UPS would want to ship them to PA? With or without the tires doesn't matter to me.
Thanks...

adamls · 11-07-2002, 02:09 PM

The cost to PA would be at least $200 in my experience. I do not think it would be worth the cost. If your willing to pay the shipping we can work on the price of the wheels just to get them out of my garage.

71k5 · 11-07-2002, 10:08 PM

Thanks - - - I'll check with UPS here to see what they would cost going from this direction and let you know if it's not too unreasonable. By the way, is there any kind of letter stamp on the wheels to identify them in case I have to look for some here? GM used some two and three letter codes on a lot of their wheels....

adamls · 11-07-2002, 11:51 PM

I dont see any letters? It is kinda dark. I will look when there is more light and it is a little warmer out.

*Fast68Chevy* · 11-07-2002, 11:55 PM

letters are usually stamped near filler valve neck

good luck

**PICKMUP** · 11-10-2002, 03:37 PM

Be sure and measure the center hole diameter in any newer wheels. The 88 & newer holes on GM ralleys are too small to fit over our hubs (6-lug).

**jerry moss** · 11-10-2002, 06:02 PM

it took me a while to find it, but the option sheet out of a 71 4x4 1/2 ton i used to have lists option #R65- 650x16x6.
