Needing wheels

[The Griff]

Well, I just got some free tires. 265/75/R16 Radial LT Courser OTD's.
About half tread and zero dry rot

Now I need some 16 inch wheels for the Blazer. I can get some plain steel wheels from a 88-98 K10, but is the hub-hole big enough? If not, what would be?

88-up smaller hub holes. and back space wrong.

basicly you will be looking at aftermarkets

Craigslist is your friend.

16" wheels should be easy to find.

You can get CHEAP steel wheels from summit or jegs for $60ish a piece, last resort.



6 lug or 8 lug?

The 8 lug hub holes are big enough on newer wheels, just don't get the 2012+ metric ones.

I ran a set of 05 and 08 8 lugers on mine.

Six lug, a friend of mine has a set of turbine wheels that I really, really like, on a parts truck he has, they are 6 lug 16, and its a 79 K10.

He keeps telling me they are going stay on that truck once he puts his S10's body on it, but he has been saying that for a year and a half.

dhcomp don't forget

99-up ford superduty are 8-170 metric and wont fit also .

Well, today got me nowhere, I found 2 new sets, One a friend of mine ran on his mud truck, 10 inch wide white spokes, but he said he would want $70 for the 4. Another was a guy who was trying to sell a mid-70's Suburban, and he was trying to sell a set of slotted mag wheels, that looked awesome, but he wanted to sell them with the truck, if not, he wanted $140.

I asked my friend with the turbine wheels again, and he said we wanted to wait until he started ripping the truck apart, but I could have them when he did. Thing is, this truck has been sitting on his property for more than a year.
