David,

Unfortunately these are not Alcoa's.

They are lug centered Eagles. According to the ad the Hub Bore: is 130.18 mm that is 5.125 in. The GMC hub is 4.567.

Regards,
Rob M.

Can a person use hub centering rings to get the larger bore wheels to work on the GMC? It seems that you can find a lot of Ford and Dodge dually wheels, but the early GMC style does not seem to be as common.

Rob;
Darn...Close, but no cigar.....
I saw the aluminum Dodge wheels and remembered there had been discussion on the use of them.
I think there are some folks using them on their GMC's.
