Two of my original rims had some bad rust on the bottoms where they sat flat… needless to say I have new wheels, and I planned to use larger studs so everything fits better. The older 2500/3500 Chevy Vans used an 8 – 6.5 bolt pattern, and it looks like the stock wheels were 16 x 6 ½. So…I am thinking everything should fit in my modern 17 x 8 wheel. I am probably going to run by Napa and measure the caliper so I can get a good idea on how it will fit relative to where I want to mount on the spindle.
Does anyone know the measurement of the hub surface to the outside surface of the spindle (where the bolt holes are), spindle thickness (at the bolt holes), and thickness of the drum between the WMS and Hub Surface? My truck is getting painted and I do not when it will be done.
Thanks for the help.
