Re: Will these wheels fit

Nope, and here's why. It's not the bolt pattern ( you do have a 6x5.5")that won't work, it's that the center hubs on the front end and the rear axle positioning hub (round protrusion that sticks out from the center of the bolt pattern) are too big to fit into most of the newer wheels unless they are specifically made for the bigger diameter hubs. I have new wheels that I got a really good deal on but I had to have the center hole of each wheel machined to fit the larger hub size on the older 6 lug trucks. Some wheels you can do this, others you can not.

I would call American Racing and see if they make a model of that wheel that fits the older trucks, then you will know for sure.

Good luck, Rg
