02suburbanZ71 Posted May 10, 2014 Posted May 10, 2014 Going to look at rims. Any help would be appreciated
02suburbanZ71 Posted May 10, 2014 Author Posted May 10, 2014 No. The bolt pattern is 6x5.5 The ones i got are a 6 lug. Its off of 88-98 silverado i think. Will that bolt up?
Chris Posted May 10, 2014 Posted May 10, 2014 As long as they are a minimum of 16" I believe. Not sure if those 16's will clear the calipers. But 16" is the minimum

But 16" is the minimum Thanks for the feedback. They are 16's so hopefully they fit. I have rear disks does that matter if they fit? I have 17's on it now
02suburbanZ71 Posted May 10, 2014 Author Posted May 10, 2014 Same brakes as the other suv's. 16's should clear The rims are 16's off a 97 tahoe. The rims have 245 tires on. Mine is an 02. I thought the obs would fit up until 2005? Im nervous that these wont fit now
Chris Posted May 10, 2014 Posted May 10, 2014 I remember something about the obs rims not clearing the 99-04 fronts. Doesnt hurt to try
bmp5484 Posted May 11, 2014 Posted May 11, 2014 I once tried to put a set of 96 or 97 16" silverado wheels onto a 00 Silverado and they didn't clear the calipers if I remember correctly.

MikeNH Posted May 11, 2014 Posted May 11, 2014 If it was a 96 it had rear drums so he's talking about the front.
Chris Posted May 11, 2014 Posted May 11, 2014 But, on a GMT-800 the rear discs are larger than the front. But I believe the front calipers are larger.
02suburbanZ71 Posted May 15, 2014 Author Posted May 15, 2014 You guys were right. The 97 16's with 245 dont fit in the front. Too bad.
newdude Posted May 21, 2014 Posted May 21, 2014 2005 and newer trucks need a min. of a 17" wheel to clear the brakes. Standard equipment is 17" on those and newer.
