Let's see your C20 8 lug 20 inch wheels!

[bcwilson_1]

Ok guys and gals, I am trying to get ideas for a 72 C20 for 20 inch wheels. Anybody on here with a 3/4 ton in the 67-72 8 lug realm with 20 inch wheels so I can get ideas of looks and manufacturers? Please no pics of anything smaller than 20 inch and no bigger. I know there are all kinds of options for 8 lug wheels out there but sadly there doesn't seem to be many people going the 20 inch route with these classics. Not sure why. Other years are welcome too, but would specifically like to see the 67-72's. Thanks!

Any issues with fitment like hub size or rubbing?

[Ram-Man]

Nope they fit and tuck perfect. Bolted right on.

Awesome build! Good to see someone not doing the typical C10 build. And even more rare to see a C20 build with aftermarket wheels bigger than stock. I like the tire size as well. Not too little sidewall or too much. I'm going with a wider wheel setup with a negative offset myself. Something in the 20x9 -18ish front and 20x12 -44 possibly in the rear. With the Dana 60 do you know if the axle width is skinny enough to hold a -44 and not stick out past the bedside? I'm not tucking the wheels, only lowering it down to remove any gap between the rubber and fender.

This is the look on wanting, but with a better negative offset. Wish I could find out more info on this guys truck and wheel info.

Sounds like a lot of negative offset to me. Mine are +18 if you go to a -44 thats 3.22" farther out not figuring in the 12" wide wheel. I'd say that will stick out way past your bedside.

[bcwilson_1]

Wow. There's only one person on here with 20s on there 3/4 ton?

[bcwilson_1]

Ok, I can't believe nobody else has 20s on their c20, so I'm up for seeing some 18s if you have em. Again, nothing smaller than 18 because that's the smallest I would go. Thanks!

Because most of us that have C/20s like them stock!!

[bcwilson_1]

Ya I'm more of the stock look but nice wheels kinda guy. Like the half sleeper look. I would love to put some bigger rally style wheels if somebody would make a set of them in an 8 lug bigger than 15 or 16 inch. Sounds like a new market idea for wheels if someone had the money to start it. I'm sure there are plenty of guys out there that don't like the completely stock boring look.

[bcwilson_1]

Ok...reviving this thread as there have to be more people on here with 3/4 ton and 20 inch wheels!

I've got a 3/4 ton and am happy to show you the 16.5s or the 17s even, but no 20s!

Thanks for the quick response but no thanks I already have 16s. I'm going with a 20 x12 in the rear and need to know what will fit without sticking out too far.

Ua I remember your truck it was the first post on here! and now I'm torn between the smoothies and a modern deep lip wheel.

Thank you. They are the smoothie wheels from Detroit steel wheels. They are 20x9 all around. Fronts have a 5.5 BS and rear have 4.5. Originally put 275/40 all around but the front started rubbing on hard bumps and dips so went with 255/40 up front.

Awesome thanks for the specs! What about the axle is it the Dana 60? Just trying to figure out axle width as well.

No. I have the Eaton rear end. HO52 I believe. Those caps fit almost flush with the center face of the rim. I probably could've gone with half an inch more backspace on each wheel. There plenty of room but I wanted more of a lip on the rim. I like the way they came out. Haven't had any issues rubbing on the front with the new tires.
