TX Big Truck Wheels Accuride 28160 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**JPBrecheisen** · 01-29-2016, 06:23 PM

Set of two hard to find non-split rim wheels for big trucks C50-C60 etc.

My truck is a 1960 C60, but I think these fit years beyond 60-66. If you're looking for these wheels by part number, I'm sure you'll know if they fit or not.

Accuride obsolete part number 28160. These are stamped Firestone but are exactly like the accuride wheel.

SOLD for the pair plus shipping.

I'd rather not split up the pair, but I'll consider it if you only need one.

Thanks

Your not, by chance, going to Pate Swap meet next month, are you?

**JPBrecheisen** · 03-13-2016, 11:26 PM

I wasn't planning on it. Work schedule disallows.

I will shoot you pay pal info in a PM. A few guys had PM'd me about these, but I think the shipping costs were going to disinterest them on the deal.

I figured it would have to be someone withing driving distance.

**JPBrecheisen** · 03-13-2016, 11:28 PM

Also, there is no rubber on these wheels anymore. The tires were shot and I had them scrapped.

**62cdan** · 03-13-2016, 11:29 PM

That's fine.

**62cdan** · 03-13-2016, 11:34 PM

I've been looking for these, and I having a really hard time. I need six, but this will be a good start. I have a 1970 GMC C5500 that is a great truck, but , I just can't justify buying six new wheels and tires for it. But I have to do something, because no one in my area will even touch the wheels on it.

**JPBrecheisen** · 03-14-2016, 12:26 AM

I had the same problem. Looked and looked and only found these two. I ended up going with the aftermarket style from wheels now Inc.

Here is a picture with them and 10R rubber.

Truck originally had the 20" RH5°

Nice looking truck.....

Do you remember what they charged per wheel?

**JPBrecheisen** · 03-14-2016, 07:45 AM

I think it was in the realm of $225 ea.

They still have a few of the original looking centers so they can make original looking ones also. Those however can only be made in the 7.5" width and cost a good deal more. They were a little over $300 something per wheel.

They could have made the 6.75" width, but the disk and wheel didn't have the proper fit and they would have had to fill the gap between the two with the weld vs. The two pieces fitting snuggly so there is proper weight distribution.

I don't care much for the look of the reproduction wheel, but I ran out of time and I think they look good enough after painting. They are a tad thicker so you have to watch the wheels stud length on the rears. They weigh a tad more also. I think around 90 lbs vs the original at about 75 lbs.

I will try to find my old invoice for the exact cost but i am.pretty sure it was about $225 ea.
