If you're looking for ideas and suggestions first then this is the right place. Please also include more details of what you're trying to do and why, you'll get better answers if you ask clear questions. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2009 Posts: 60 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jun 2009 Posts: 60 | the one i have are 16' but those look just like some of them.all 3 piece i believe.I have a few bad ones original is awesome or whats a good replacement?

You have to search by wheel size, then # of studs and bolt circle.
They offer a 18 x 8 8 stud on a 6.693 in bolt circle. They also stock 16 inch wheels

If your truck had 18" originally and you'd like to go back to that you'll be looking for old/used wheels.
For a modern equivalent tubeless wheel and tire look for 19.5" wheels and 8R19.5 tires are a good option. This is what I have on my 1 ton.
You may also fit some 16" wheels, check clearance on rear brake drums. Depending on the tire size they may or may not be as tall as you want. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2016 Posts: 5 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Apr 2016 Posts: 5 | Are the 55' 2nd series GMC 150 3/4 ton dually wheel size and offset similar to the 3600 or 3800 dually setup.
I am having issues figuring out the right offset to fit my truck.
The problem is the truck is (6) hours away and I cant retrieve it until I replace the stock wheels and tires which I will do on site prior to loading it up.
The manual states my size is 16x6-8lug on 6.5 but I swear it is a 15" wheel.
