Guess what? Yep, a perfect bolt pattern /center match! For whatever that is worth? | | | | | Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 | I think you'll find that the lug pattern on the Ford wheel is actually slightly smaller than the Chevrolet. The Ford pattern is 6 x 135mm, the Chevrolet is 6 x 139.7mm. That will prevent the lug nuts from properly seating. In addition, the backspace and offset are not correct.

The good news is that I can buy nice looking alloy wheels without a major hunt. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 9,671 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 9,671 | Don't sound like much till you see it illustrated: http://www.pbase.com/dennygraham/image/153279066Thanks for pointing that out Bill, might have avoided a serious accident.

This is every 6 bolt GM truck wheel up to current, and Nissan Titan, etc. Where you might run into issues is with the backspacing on the newer wheels, as your '41 was mean to run very narrow wheels, you might run into clearance issues. As with anything else, measure, measure, measure. | | |
