Re: 8 lug wheel pattern help

Later model 8 lug 16" GM wheels are available at many dismantler yards. I picked up an uninstalled specimen from a Suburban for a little more than I would pay at Summit (but didn't pay shipping). When using the "F" word, just know that a lot of the drive train parts for all makes of trucks are purchased from the same vendors, and are not built/made in-house.
