k5 15s on k1500?

[southern_z71_92]

i am wanting something different. i have a 92 z71 with 33/12.5/15 trail grappler m/t tires. wheels are offset and dont look bad but i was wondering what would i have to do to fit 15 on factory backspacing such as k5 blazer wheels. i understand that the caliper has to be shaved down. pics would be great on exactly what i would need to do.

also what are my options on aftermarket 15 inch wheels that are not wagon wheels, or steel bullet holes (what i have now).

thanks guys. current pics of my truck are here: http://www.gmt400.com/forum/showthread.php?20141-My-92-K1500-Z71-build-thread/page8

K5's used 8" Rally's just like the trucks, they work fine on our trucks, and look great.

i have heard on here that the caliper has to be modified because the z71s had 16s factory. i know where a set of factory k5 alloys are and i think that would look great on my truck.

wait, alloys or rally's? alloys might need to be shaved.

all K1500's had 16's factory, Z71 had same wheels as 4x4's

Pretty sure it's 6". I have some factory wheels in my garage right now actually. I'll go check.

Edit: It's 5.75"

K5 ralley wheels bolt right up. No need to modify calipers. I run them on my truck.
