wheel adapters on 8 lug OBS trucks with NBS rims?

[Sagacious715]

Does anyone have any pictures of their OBS truck with NBS wheels using (1.5" thick) wheel adapters?? I'm trying to get an idea how much the wheels will stick out or not.

In the absence of pics, might I suggest math? Verify your current wheel width/offset vs the desired wheel, measure how far in your current setup is, and apply the difference.

Thanks. Do you know where I can find the specs of a stock rim on a 94 2500 2wd?

I know these new rims are 8.5" wide with a 44mm (1.73") offset.

Off hand I'm willing to bet it's 6.5" wide, but would have to default to the google for the all-important offset. 44mm is a significant offset, makes sense why you're asking about spacer pics.

Ok, I found the stock wheel offset is 6.5" wide with a 13mm (.51") offset.

I cant find the pics when i first put my PY0s on. But the front wheels were basically flush with the front fenders with 285 tires. Rears were sucked in quite a bit.

Thanks, were you using 1.5" wheel adapters with those on all 4 wheels?

PY0 wheels have a 28mm offset vs the 44mm I'm trying to use. A difference of .6in in comparison. Which basically means my rims will be sucked in .6" more than yours were, right?

Can someone help me figure out how much this new rim will stick out vs my stock one based on this information ??

So what year is the truck that the rims came off?

8 luggers from 2010 or older GM will bolt right on.

I have towed heavy with the PY0s on (16 inch alloys 99-08, GMT800 and GMT900 usage) and the 17 inch OEM alloys from the 07.5-10 GMT900s and have had zero issue, and they look good IMO.
