6 lug 20 inch wheels
 
1 Attachment(s)
Been looking for some 6 lug 20 inch wheels for my 1968 C10 with drum brakes (original setup). I know wheels are limited for the 6 lug vs the 5 lug, but is there any 6 lug 20" rims (like the ones pictured below:gray, silver, chrome, polished, or black) that will fit these trucks without modification? Thanks.

Not that I know of; but you might Google 22" GM Transit or Transport wheels and see what you think.. They are steel and I believe they fit the six lug rear axle without modification but not sure about the front.

Photo attached - though there are better photos on google - this one is cut and pasted from a post.

The GM 22'' transit steelies usually require the center hole of the wheel to be bored out to a bigger size.
(same with the rest of the 99-2016 GM accessory wheels)
The way around that is to use spacers.

Aftermarket wheel companies will build you just about any wheel you want, but they are pricey.
(Budnik, Billet Specialties, Intro, Boyd Coddington, Bonspeed, etc)

I put on some 20 inch American Racing VN327's with no issues. I also have a 4/6. I thought Boss Wheels made something similar to what you posted

You can do a search at summit racing for wheels, just put in the 6x5.5 bolt pattern, 20" wheels. There's more than 2000, but a bunch are the really modern look. But for classic, the cheapest are American Racing 6 spoke torq thrusts at $228 a piece:

I was thinking of getting those if I got a 6 lug truck.

Ooooh these centerlines look like salt flats:

Or there's this classic style, black steel with circles. I've never seen it in 20", but it would be cool, especially with some big RWL's!

Man, I wish I were ready to buy wheels...

Blue/72, those look good. What kind are those? Would they fit a 68 6 lug with drum brakes? Thanks.

Is that a 20" version of the corvette rally? I think I've seen those in 5 lug. Are they available in 6 lug?
