6 lug 16" wheels

[PolarBear]

Anyone have any 6 lug 16" wheels I might be able to borrow for a little while? I would like to put my taller tires on my suburban for my up-coming trip, but all the 6 lug wheels I have are 15". I bought these tires for my 8 lug wheels, but I can't use them until I swap the frame and axles.

I may have 16" rims. what bolt pattern are your rims????

Find out what bolt pattern your rims are so I can ask a buddy of mine if he has any 16 inch rims in his stash.

I don't know what your rim bolt pattern would be since I have never had a multi-piece wheel where the hoops bolt on to the center.
The PCD on the old trucks is 6x5.5" I believe. Some time in the 2000's they went to metric, so if the wheels are older they should work.

Got a 1990 silverado with 6 lug aluminum wheels I'm getting ready to scrap. Let me know if that works. If you have steel wheels with tires, I'll straight trade. I'm away this thursday-sunday if it matters.

That would be great. I guess you're going to just scrap the wheels and use them as rollers? I am in no rush, but I can work around your time to get them before you scrap the truck, maybe I can head down after work one day next week, or next weekend. Saturday, weather permitting, I have to go get some raw materials so I may be able to do both, depending where this truck is?

Its in Point, I'm not rushing to get it scrapped so if its within the next few weeks that would work. Yeah I just need rollers to get it onto the flat bed without beating the bed up. Technically I get an extra $10 per aluminum wheel but if it helps you, I'm cool with that.

Thanks Adam. I will shoot for next weekend. And give you the wheels that aren't in as good shape for rollers. Hopefully the Super Swampers fit under your junk truck

I have 3 C4 Vette wheels/tires I can give you in trade I can actually give you the wheels back if you want when I finish with them. I am not even positive I will be able to get them under the suburban as it sits right now, BBC with an iron intake with SBC springs in the front. She bottoms out on the front bump stops sometimes on hard bumps, so a 4" taller tire in the front MAY rub and potentially be dangerous. I will double check all that before I roll on them, but just sticking the new tire next to it now, it is fairly close adding 2" of tire in the wheel opening. My uncle has some spring spacers that I may try using just for this trip if they help and work.

Well you would be doing me ANOTHER favor by taking them to the scrap yard, I can't sell them since I only have 3, lol. I need to break them down and dispose of the tires, then I can junk the wheels

Fair enough
