2011 Chevy 2500HD OEM Rims on Older Models


Recommended Posts

Should fit on back of a disc brake rear. Probably have issues with a 4WS truck though. Fronts, the chassis height is different and the ride will be greatly affected. Its a fact that brand new GMC 2500 HD rides a bit rougher than a 2004 2500 HD. Most of this difference is due to lack of a side wall. I think the Bolt pattern is the same... Aftermarket spacers are many lug patterns, but I would only use in front if you plan on heavy towing or hauling. Longer studs may be required and when that happens capacity goes down. Are these "E" rated tires?

no the 2011- has a 8x180 bolt pattern while the older ones have 8x6.5. These patterns are way different you will need a lug nut adapter/spacer. Try googling it you will find many results.

Yes it can be done with adapters, and it'll look stock-ish when finished because of the difference in offset between the two.

I've always liked the 18" and 20" OEM 2011 - 2015 wheels. Timeless design.
