I am trying to sell the old rims off my truck and from what I can gather they seem to be 16x5 rims. But here is the kicker... The rims are stamped "GM" but the center bore is 88mm.

I've checked a lot of sites but nothing says GM ever had a 88mm center bore.

What are these rims from? They are 6 bolt.

Probably original. My old '79 2wd K5 came with 16x5 rims too, but they were 5-lug obviously.

But did stock rims come with 88mm center bore? Of all the info I've found Chevy/GMC has always been 78mm or 108mm.

Maybe off the 03-07 model chevy WT series.

Them trucks where 6 lug and they where cheap.

Are they steel wheels?
