Wheel Vintiques 82 Series 16x10 (8 on 6-1/2) with 5" backspace. I want to use my OE dog-dish hubcaps as well.

(my truck is an 87 V20)

Call Summit, They'll be able to give you a definite answer.

not a great fit with the 5" backspace. that will tuck the wheels pretty far under and may contact the steering arms. thats made for the newer ifs trucks.
ideally a 4" backspace but i dont know about the caps fitment.

that wheel is basically having the wheel mount surface at the center of the wheel. test fit a different wheel and compare the changes in wheel width at the backside of the barrel to see if it will hit anything.

That's what I was afraid of...I guess that I'll stay with the original plan, and have Stockton widen my OE's...

Not so fast. I dont know what those ones are for sure, but several folks on this site have used the 10" wide wheel vintiques and they look amazing! I'll find some pic.s

Definitely not too tucked in.

I believe the 16.5 x 9.75s had about a 5" backspace. There were two offsets available The ones with less backspace were intended as rear wheels for C/20s and C/30s, prior to big Dooley pickups
