Re: 79 k10 hub diameter

I think it's 3.5" if memory serves. If that's not correct hopefully someone who has access to one easily can chime in with a measurement.

Re: 79 k10 hub diameter

Thanks for the post,it must be around 3.5 because the wheels I have is 4 3/16 and rim is not sitting on hub. Is it ok to drive like that?

Re: 79 k10 hub diameter

Sure. Most aftermarket wheels are lug centric and not hub centric anyhow, meaning that the lugs are what centers the wheel unlike OEM where the hub pilot does that job.
