CAD fun

I'm learning how to use the Pro-ENGINEER CAD program. I want to design some after market wheels for my sierra. Can someone give me the stock specifications for the 16" rims?


I think the pattern is 6-139.7, 0 backspacing, 8.5" wide. Sound right?

Looks like I wanna design something in a 17". I'll give picks when done!

CAD programs are completely cool. I wish I had a reason to use one now!

Drawing takes a special person. I don't have the patience myself to do it for a living. Summer 08 for my internship they left me to do all of the design work for my projects. I couldn't stand being couped up at my desk for a few weeks doing nothing but drawing, I preferred being out in the plant. Summer 09 they had too much stuff for me to do so I got to do the engineering work and then oversee a designer work up the GAs and shop drawings. Much better that way.

True.






IF you count the ones after the decimal point.
