so my truck was confused when it was made. its a 1500HD w/6.0 gasser with 8 lugs. i need some stock wheels. looking for a set of black steelies or maybe i can have a set of stock rims powder coated. id like to do a 4/6 drop but im not sure what a CCSB would look like or if a 4/6 drop would work with my truck. and i cant seem to find a set of black stealies. i do know the current rims need to come off though. some fugly 20's that came with it. as it sits they rub when you turn it to the bump :P
try 4 wheel parts they have the black steal wheel
I understand getting smaller wheels, but why go from 20's to steelies? Why not some black 18's or a nice set of 16's.
You sure its a 1500? I haven't heard of a 8 lug 1500.
It sure is......Quote:

My cousin have one.....Real Gas Guzzler
if i spent the money on aftermarket id prolly go with something bigger really like the KMC slide 22"s but im having a hard time finding them black with 8 lug. and i have no clue what the offset should be. suggestions on width and offset? my current 20s are way wrong, came with the truck and i never took the time to get anything different. looks cool but im tired of trash on the side of the truck and they rub inside. people who spit gum out the window in the summer are not cool :P for now i just want some cheap stockers till i get the body and stance sorted out. googles kmc wheels..
Look in dallas craigslist there was a 02 ccsb dury slaaaaaamed maybe if still up you can write him for help...
Chevy made the 1500hd with a 2500 frame 6.0 and 2500 axles. Its a 2500 but with better interior options. Same go's for a 2500hd its a 3500 with better interior options.Quote:

Is not the same chassis. 2500 chassis is bigger.Quote:

ill search some diesel threads i guess to find a cheap set of stockers..
This is it. They make the 1500, 1500hd,2500,2500hd,3500,3500hd. 1500hd and 2500 are the same, 2500hd and 3500 same. And here is the pic of the truck mentioned above http://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/cto/2478392577.htmlQuote:

The 2500 (not hd) i have, frame is bigger
Both are made in the US.
Just what I ovserbeb from what i have here !
Probably you guys there have tons of more option
My Bad, I was comparing my 900GMT 2500 to my cousin 800GMT 1500HD.
So they are not apples to apples.
Probably the same GMT are same frames, or same truck. Don't know.
To the op, I got my rims from eagle wheels. +25mm offset and they stick out at least 2"
here is a link for the options http://aewheel.com/wheels_detail_specs.cfm?id=448
