2011 Gmc 2500HD take off wheels. They are 18" polished aluminum with a set of Goodyear Wrangler 265-70-18 SR-A's Load Range E with less than 500 miles on them. Will only fit 2011 and newer trucks with 8 lug due to new GM bolt pattern. Contact Jason 925-286-2327 I don't get on the computer much, please call. 700 obo

I'm hoping he is incorrect. Ran some 05 ish 17" 8 lug alloys on my burb, no problems.

Anyone know if the new 8 lug changed?

they changed. single wheel are 8x110mm and dually are 8x120mm if i remember right. Making it harder to put aftermarket rims on them Im sure to keep them buying from dealer.

NOOOOOOOO.

So dodge is the only mfg sticking to the old, non metric pattern. Great.

And the new dodge wheels have way too much backspacing for how wide they are, ask me how i know

They are 8x180

I remember reading this a while back and couldn't believe they would go and screw it up. Plus its not even the same as the 8 lug ford metric bolt pattern because that would be too easy.

Always liked the symmetrical 8 lugs and 8 spokes. Mine are the five spoke style. I wish those were closer to me since you're not using them.

What?

The wheels that you were looking at have 8 spokes and they are symmetrical with the 8 lug nuts. Each lug nut is lined up with a spoke in the wheel. Mine on my 2011 GMC have 5 spokes and 8 lugs, so it's not symmetrical. I really wanted the 8 spoke wheels when I bought it, but it wasn't an option. They could sell me them, but couldn't swap them out one for one.

Here's the only pic I have handy of it, so you can kind of see what I mean.

For $700, it's a great deal and I'd snatch them up if they were closer since they're not going to work for you.
