Rims

Anyone happen to know if bolt pattern for rims are the same for a 63 chevy stepside c10 and a 08 chevy reg cab 1500?

From what I've found online, the lug pattern is the same, but may require wheel spacers to clear control arms and such.

Ok thanks!They are both 6 lug so i was thinking they would. But such a wide gap in years i was not for sure.

You have to watch out for the center bore too. Some hubs are larger than the new ones.

The reason i am asking is i am considering buying a 08 reg. cab 1500 with 59k and a 5.3. It has 22 rims but if it don't look stupid, dumb idea i hav some 15 rims. Stock size was like 17. What ya'll think?

15 inch rims won't fit a late model truck. Brakes are too big. 17 is as small as you can go.

Unless they had mega back spacing.

Yeah, They would need some pretty awkward offset to work.

I didnt know a 63 C10 had 6 lug wheels. I thought is was 5 lug til around mids 90's when they switch to the 6 lug on the gmt400 trucks.
