Hi Fellow GMCer's
MY first post to this group. I have a question about rims. A local guy scrapped a 1 Ton dually and has 4 of these fancy 16" aluminun rims to sell that were on the dually. He let me borrow one and it seems to fit the GMC ok. Problem is the center hole in the rim is slightly larger than the gmc steel rim and does not locate on the GMC hub. The aluminun rims come with steel sleeves that slide over the studs into oversize stud holes on the rim. Seems this method will have all the weight on the studs? Don't know if this was the case when mounted on the dually or not. Is this a common setup and will it work for the GMC.? I would still need to purchase a couple 16"steel rims for the front and put on some hub caps. Is there a aftermarket steel rim available that fits? THANKS
