This thread has got me wanting a set for the Jimmy, especially after seeing your 'Burb, Slapperbear! I was just wondering how the stock hubcaps would look on a light blue truck and then you post up your 'Burb that looks to be the same color as my Jimmy! 
Found one set on E-bay, perhaps a bit pricey though (wish I had the $$$ anyway!):

Now, the question becomes, can one buy a 17" x 9" wheel that would fit factory hubcaps (seem to be about 12.5" or so and were mounted on 16-16.5" factory wheels?)??
What are y'all doing for custom size wheels that fit the stock hubcaps?

This is the thread from Neversatisfied's Jimmy.

They were mounted on 15" 16" and 16.5" steel wheels from the factory. I have half ton and three quarter ton sets, but I have never checked if they are interchangeable.

Glad to help. For the record, those wheels are 16".
What were the stock differences between that blue and white Jimmy and my Blazer? Just the emblem, or is there more to it?
That's pretty much it. The emblems and a GMC-specific vin number.
Is that foam on the rollbar stock?
I have never seen foam on a rollbar in any of the old ads I've seen. I'm 99% sure it's not stock.

Did you paint the flutes of the hubcaps the same as the blue body paint? That looks kind of nice. What year is that? I'm going to guess '78.Looks like my 2wd trucks big brother
