16" GMC Motorhome Steel Wheel Email to send
I did a lot of looking for 16" steel replacements. You have to go to each
place that says,"Yeah, we gottem", and check for yourself. I put about
150 miles on my car, checking the "recycle centers" and the places that
sell new wheels, after they said they had GMC dually wheels.
Here is some Info from my records. It's a from a bunch of posts from a
lot of people.
NOTE: Any prices listed are out of date

The first sentence is the most important.

Beware: there are two spider shapes for GM dually wheels. Either will fit
the GM & Chev trucks, but only the dome shaped one will fit the GMC MH.
The other one (sort of a truncated cone shape) will not fit.
------------------
Size 16x6
Circle - 8 - 6.5"
Bolt hole dia .670
Hub bore dia. 4.567
Backspace 8.150
Offset 5.150
Wheel load pounds 2780
Max inflation 95
29587 is the steel wheel part number They were $66 at southwest wheel.
Fits Chevy 3500
359402 is the original GM part number
1062 is the Hollander interchange number
They were used on a lot of GM trucks - Here are a few of
them:
Pre 1976 may not be suitable for radial tires.

1 Ton P3500 Dual 76'-00

I can now say that the Accuride 29587 will not work on any GMC
The Kelly X45329 might work on coaches with standard front calipers.
Firestone does not make rims any more so unless you find them in a junk
yard they are not easily available
