I just spoke to ArrowCraft. They said the Accuride's for Chevy would have to be bored open to 4.88". They said the best thing would be to measure the hub on the adapter just to be sure.
I cannot find a good source for these wheels. Everyone says Les Schwabb but nothing like that around here.

i just got six of 'em from the local "commercial tire" for $15 each. soon as they told me the price, i paid for them and got outta there as quick as i could. good luck with your search. i'd been looking for the last two years before i found this set locally.

My father has 6 from a step van (GM I believe) and I am interested in this. Question for those who have them- I see above that they sit inside the fenders better. This implies that they are narrower overall for the pair...and as such, should have more room between the springs and the inside tires. I'm asking because I might (and I stress might) want to try putting them on the rear of my truck if and when I build a new body. I remember reading that a 1st gen owner swapped to duallies, and they just cleared his springs without mods. How about 2nd gen SRW trucks going to duallies?

I have not found a source for these wheels cheaper than $150 that is from Rickson. Other places have told me $200 or maybe $180 from a place where i'd have to pay $20 per wheel to have it shipped.
There's a lot of similar Accuride wheels for $30 each on eBay and someone on here says they bought them for $15 so I am not sure I am ready to drop $200 per wheel.
I have read $80 from Southwest wheel - they told me $200
I have also read $120 from Les Schwab which seems relatively fair but I doubt they ship.

My wheels are for a trailer, they use the same bolt pattern as Dodge. They are not hub centric and the smaller hole would be fine. What year step vans used them, don't know what to look for.
Different subject, Goodyear G-159 are no longer in production. They are replaced by Goodyear G-614 and is designated a trailer tire although I ran them on the 2500 ok. Good tires... hard to find... impossible used... expensive.

But there are no G rated tires in 16 inch. Heavy 19.5 are a dime a dozen. So still looking. The only 16 inch is the G614 which is a trailer tire and works but is expensive and impossible used.
