Locating Eagle Alloy Black 20” Wheel

[Plumber101010]

From what I can tell by searching this is either a series 27 or 50.  Actually the wheels look identical to me so I’m not sure what the difference is between the 2 series.

 

From what I can tell this wheel has been discontinued and it is not in my budget to buy 5 new wheels!!!

 

My question is does it have to be a fancy wheel?  I don’t know much about these lifts and wheels and offsets but can I just buy a cheap steel wheel that will fit and throw a tire on it?

Are you looking for a wheel for a spare tire?

YES, I am

You can use any wheel you want as long as the overall diameter (height) of the tire is the same and it clears the brake caliper which I think any 17 will do.

These are 20” wheels so do they even make a plain steel 20” wheel like OEM comes with Silverado? I’m not sure about offset and all that stuff so that’s what I’m worried about!

Why not use the factory spare? Your original post didn't specify if you have one or not. The wheel diameter makes no difference its is the overall diameter of the tire that matters to not screw up the diffs/tcase.

The original post said 35 x 12 x 20 so the factory spare would not apply as these are aftermarket installs. Yes I have one but it’s usless, think it’s a 265 17. 
 

Trying to correlate a tire that fits on a 17 inch wheel to be the exact same diameter as the 35s on the 20” wheel would be pretty difficult I would think because it would have to be right down to the half inch at least, maybe more right?

 

That is unless you saying that I can buy a 35 x 12 1/2 Mickey Thompson to fit on a 17” wheel??? That would be great news!!!!

 

I didn’t think that was possible and so I just thought it would be easier to buy the exact same tire and just put it on a 20” cheapie wheel without having to spend a few hundred on the fancy eagle alloy that I have now?

 

thanks!

If you're planning on putting it up in the spare area I don't think it will fit. But yes you could buy any cheap 20" wheel and put that tire on it. Offset won't matter as long as it clears and the overall tire diameter is the same height wise.

Wow!!! I learned something new just now with your post!!! I never dreamed the diameter would be the exact same on a 17 inch wheel and a 20 inch wheel but you are absolutely correct. The only difference is the sidewall is taller!!!

 

Now I have to research what the hell is the advantage of a 20” wheel!!!!
 

All this time I’ve been driving myself crazy and all I have to do is chunk the tire on the spare and use that wheel and order a new tire!!!

 

Thank you thank you thank you
