Dumb Wheel Interchange Q.

[Arnold]

Can one put 01-6 or so GM 8 bolt rims on older..(pre 98 trucks)?
Is there a nut that will work well for that?

 (These are the cheap 1 piece rims..not the rivetted 2 piece ones)

  I know you can't put 94 8 bolt rims(off my van) on my 01 Burb because of caliper clearance. But you can go the other way..well..I dunno..they fit..but the 01 or thereabouts nuts are metric. I can use the old nuts on the van BUT..they sit lower in the rim than I like.( Yes the angles are the same) The 01's and later are just bigger nuts to take those plastic threaded centre caps.

 Are there any different wheel nuts for pre about 01 8 bolts?

  Maybe I should look at a Ford or Dodge?

 I don't think I have ever seen one? 8 bolt GM nuts. They were the same for too long I guess

 Thanks Guys

As I recall there is a Ford truck lug nut that solves that problem. I found them at the NAPA store, and beyond being for a Ford truck, I have no more information.
