Rims question

[chevroletgm]

Hey guys I have a 2001 GMC Sierra SL 4.8L V8 2 Wheel Drive and I want to know for sure will these rims fit? Thank-You

[darkfox1]

Fairly sure they will. Your truck is 6 lug right? I do believe from 99-06 the 2wd and 4wd all had the same hubs and backspacing (or roughly the same.)

 

I've seen 2007-2013 rims on 88-98 chevy trucks so I know GM doesn't change much over time in this regard.

Assuming they came off a GM truck AND they are 6x139.7, you're good to go!

[Stringer77]

if that wheel has 6 lugs it will fit. It will be ugly though.

[chevroletgm]

why ugly? Stringer77? you don't like the style?

[PJB1972]

Pay him no mind, It's YOUR truck, get what YOU like.

If someone can jack up a 2WD to make it look 4WD, you can buy whatever wheels you want!

Hey PJB1972 just want to know aren't my old rims 6x5.5 (6x139.7)?

[yoshiyamaha]

Those will work

[chevroletgm]

and these ones are also 6x5.5 (6x139.7)?

Hey guys need your help my 2001 GMC Sierra SL 2 Wheel Drive, has been installed with these rims and the rear caliper rubs here by just a hair and the front is fine should I shave a little bit on the rim? how come the front is fine and on the rear it rubs my stocks are the ones with the red GMC Center Cap, I thought they are both 6x5.5 (139.7) and 31mm? I did my homework to determine what I wanted did I miss something?

[chevroletgm]

bump anyone could they be replica?? maybe that's why anyone chime in?

[PJB1972]

Sorry so late, Don't get to this part of the forum much... However, I saw these EXACT same wheels on a Chevrolet GMT800 TODAY and all looked fine. Not sure why they are rubbing on the rear brakes in your situation.

DO NOT remove any of the wheel!

It will change the weight and balance of that wheel. IF anything, get some clearance from the brake calipers or some other non rotating mass

[PJB1972]

Hey PJB1972 just want to know aren't my old rims 6x5.5 (6x139.7)?

Additionally, I have those same wheels (your old ones) and yes, they're 6x139.7

When checking Rockauto, its the exact same part number for rear calipers from 2001 to 2003. (Likely the same through 2007 classic)

Nothing I can think of would cause any clearance issues.

What size are the new and old rims? Are the rear brakes stock or have they be upgraded to larger diameter rotors?

[chevroletgm]

hey guys sorry have been busy all is good now returned and got new ones must have been a machining defect on the rims Thanks all for your help
