Looking at buying a GMC and it needs new tires. Still has 16.5in wheels, so I would like to change over to 16in at the same time. In an effort to make my money stretch a little further, would these wheels work?

I'm guessing load and offset may be incompatable.

Pete,
It is unlikely that these wheels will fit the coach.
Following Information provided by Emory Stora:
Wheels off all GM dually pickups manufactured before 1988 will fit.
Yes they are radial rated.
Ken Burton reported in 2004:
