I really hate my wheels.

 

Really.

 

I'd love to get a set of plain, black steelies but I dont think any are available in stock offset/backspace/whatever-it's-called.

Does anyone know of a 15 inch steelie that fits a 2WD S10?

 

In the meantime I'm going to get a set of Moon discs if they'll work with aluminum wheels.

Plain steel wheels have been around for ages. Go to  your local recycler (junk Yard), tire dealers,  buddy's dad's garage and you might be surprised to see what you find. I don't think there's been any revolutions in steel wheel design in a long time. You might fin a part number at your local dealer just find the size on the rear side of the wheel and head on out!

They used same rim from 94 till 2004. Rough country has a 16 inch black steely as well that will work. Just need smaller tire.

  PartsGeek.com has em.

Hey that's just what I'm looking for. Thanks. I'll keep an eye on that, going to need four.

I'm having second thoughts about the Moon discs. My daughter is good with computers, I'm going to see if she can photoshop them on a picture of my truck.

 

If I've done my homework correctly the factory wheels are 15X7 with a 5 1/2" backspace.

Saw a 2nd gen S10 today wearing a set of old Camaro/Vette style rally wheels.

Truck was nicely lowered and looked great.

    • You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built. 
    • Diesel hit $6.00 here today at the truck stop.   Payed $2.79 for E85 today too.
    • Thanks for posting, I'm sure it will help someone
    • New to diesel trucks. I happened to find my oil cooler leaking oil externally with only 4,000 miles on the truck. I didn’t realize this was an issue until I started researching it. Dealer is going to replace it under warranty but I’m wondering if there’s anything GM is working on to fix this issue. I’ve heard the oil filter used is the same as they use on their V6 motors and that’s what is causing the problems. Should I switch to a bigger filter or keep using the OEM recommended? 
    • So, GMCustomerService:  Judging by the Update History pictured above, is this truck missing any updates that it actually needs. If it's just for the infotainment system, the radio is working fine and no trouble with SeriusXM. and Android Auto is working fine wirelessly with my phone. Some months ago, an update notice was sent to my truck. I approved the update and it finished saying that the update was successful, but it seems that whatever that update was, it didn't actually get installed - at least not if I'm to go by the Update History shown above.   So, again, are there any updates that this truck really should have? I've checked with my dealer but they're reluctant or commit to anything and if I want them to check, they require a $200.00 fee just to check it out and then I'd have to pay for the actual update(s).    Ignorance is bliss, and if none of the updates goes to fixing any mechanical discrepancies, I'll just leave things as is.
