1985-GMC · 08-30-2009, 04:48 PM

These are mine, they are 16.5 by about 11 1/2 two of them have ford stamped on them an the other three have GM stamped on them, but I think they were made by Kelsey Hayes. My hubcaps are going on them once its 4x4

bigbadchev72 · 08-30-2009, 06:35 PM

These arent mine, but they popped up on the local craigslist for someone looking for some classic mags.

This is for Ohio Dan or anyone else who might know.
I was going back through old 8 lug wheel posts as I found the same stock silver 8 lug steel wheels local.
Will the new style center caps clear the big center axle housing on the 8 lug Dana 60?
They stick out pretty far is why I ask.
I thought it was answered before but I can't seem to find it.
Thanks for any help anyone can give.

I think you have to use the dooly center caps to clear the long hubs on the rear Dana 60.

As long as I am here, this is my choice for wheels:

Re: how to make 8 lug new chevy wheels fit on a c 20

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I put a set of these on my 70 GMC. Had to put a 1 1/4" spacer on the rear so the centers would fit my Dana 60 hubs. Makes the rear wheels as far apart as the front wheels now. Looks good.

Didn't know about the dually center caps. Might have to check into that.

ajcan · 09-21-2009, 07:36 AM

Thanks for the replies.
I will look into the Dually option first then go from there.

17" OEM '67 one ton split rims w/dog dish caps...

Beuford · 12-06-2009, 04:53 PM

These are Raceline and I don't remember what the back spacing is but the fit in the stock position and don't rub or stick out. The tires are 265x75x16.

Beuford · 12-06-2009, 04:59 PM

These are Raceline Renegade 16x8 wheels with 265 x16x75 tires.

Here's my 68 C20 Custom Camper. 2003 Chevy 2500 rims with lugnut king nuts off ebay. Still looking for dooley caps for the Dana 60 rear.

I've got those same exact rims. Polished up, I think they look great.

I bought a parts truck and they were on the truck with good tires... 300 bucks for the parts truck. I sold a bunch of parts off of it, got everything i needed and had it hauled off for free. I think i got a good deal.

spyder4560 · 12-09-2009, 10:51 PM

I don't have a photo right now ,but I found a set of 16X8 Outlaw I wheels(8 lug) and they look real nice with 265/70/16's on them.Fills out the wheel wells perfect!Got them on my 69

.I'll get a picture up ASAP.The pic in my profile has wheels from a 2500 HD (2004 model).I really need to get off the computer and take some pictures!

I really like those wheels. Any idea of the brand? What size are they? If my slots don't work out I'm going to be looking for something like those instead.

k2rm · 12-10-2009, 11:56 AM

Ultra 160s.

bharrison1 · 02-28-2010, 05:35 PM

20 inch panthers truck will be lowered soon

dougo · 02-28-2010, 05:57 PM

I'm going to be putting white 16x8.5 (or 16x10) white steel wheels with center caps in the near future. Until then, this is what I have.

CG, I came across this pic last week... from another post (was showing my brother, he was envious of your truck). I really like your truck... very nice. Looks great with the wheel/tire combo, this is exactly what I'm looking to do (wheel/tire setup) to my burb. Very nice truck!
