OR $$$ WTB 6-Lug 16.5 x 8.25 Wheels w/ clips $$$ - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Frizzle Fry · 10-13-2010, 06:51 PM

These were used on some of the Military Blazers and Burbs. Made by Kelsey Hayes and I believe their part number is 56568. Any help tracking a set down would be most appreciated!

**stllookn** · 10-13-2010, 09:22 PM

Someone had a set of these...PICKMUP? CG? Here is a free bump for you!

**Steven B** · 10-13-2010, 09:42 PM

I have a set of 16.5's off a burb. I'll have to check the width.

Thanks Mike. I PM'ed CG. No response yet. He may not have been on the board since I sent it.

Are they 6-lug?

**Steven B** · 10-13-2010, 09:58 PM

Yes. The width seem to be about 10" lip to lip. If you PM me I can text some pictures.

Frizzle Fry · 10-14-2010, 06:32 PM

Well, it looks like Steven B is coming through with 4 of these

Now I'm looking for a one more to use as a full size spare. Any more out there?

**PICKMUP** · 10-18-2010, 02:47 PM

I should have one here...

Frizzle Fry · 10-18-2010, 06:50 PM

Cool. Let me know if you do. I just made a trip up there last night...

Frizzle Fry · 10-19-2010, 10:23 AM

May be interested in more than one if they are local...

**PICKMUP** · 10-19-2010, 02:44 PM

Ooops-mine are all the non-clip style...they have nubs for caps.

**stllookn** · 10-19-2010, 11:32 PM

Clip style are so coooool!!!! I did not find any at Monroe...but I am always looking! Free bump!

70LonghornCST · 10-19-2010, 11:57 PM

Bump for the 'needle in the haystack.'

**stllookn** · 10-21-2010, 09:43 PM

CRAP...look what I found tonight when I was looking for 8-lug 16.5 wheels. I didn't even notice they were 6-lug until I looked at the pics when I got back inside...ROFLMAO! I will gladly trade two of them with tires for a MINX!!!!

Frizzle...did you remember that I had these????

BTW...you can't eat just one!

Frizzle Fry · 10-22-2010, 02:36 AM

HAHA wow! I had the feeling you might have some, knowing you. One Minx for two unicorn wheels sounds like a good deal ...for someone

**stllookn** · 10-22-2010, 09:46 AM

I should check my inventory more often...never know what might be lurking back there!!!!!

68 NOS 1/2 t. "clip-style" hubcap and '68 NOS 3/4 t. "clip-style" hubcap!

Ok, so the half ton is right at 8". The caps I want to run are ~8 1/4". Might have to make some relief cuts are re-tack the "retaining ring."

**stllookn** · 10-23-2010, 11:05 AM

Mike, That should work. I have done a similar trick with beauty rings that will not fit on 9.75 x 16.5 wheels. I also used those little neodyminium magnets to keep them in place!

Frizzle Fry · 10-23-2010, 11:42 PM

It did work.6 relief cuts and they snap in! Now let's talk about liberating those others from you. PM me with price pls.
