WTB: 15x6 5-Lug Steelie
I'm looking for a 15x6, 5-lug steelie with a Chevy 5 on 5 bolt pattern. I'm trying to find one that matches my other four wheels which I believe they are from a 1981 Chevy pickup. The wheel doesn't have to have the same date code or be from the same year, it just needs to be a stock 15x6 GM steel wheel with the same style center as the one I'm posting pics of. No pitting, bends or curb rash please. Local pickup would be great but I'm open to having a nice wheel shipped. I'm located in the Denver, CO area.
I have included pictures of the markings on my wheels for comparison. Thanks Last edited by cericd; 03-19-2022 at 02:19 PM. |

Re: WTB: 15x6 5-Lug Steelie
Just to clarify, the extra wheel doesn't need to match the current condition of my other four wheels. I just need it to be in nice restorable condition.
This is what my wheels looked like prior to refinishing. Thanks Last edited by cericd; 01-21-2021 at 06:42 PM. |

Re: WTB: 15x6 5-Lug Steelie
Here's some information on what wheel(s) I'm looking for.
Over the years GM used at least two different styles of 15x6, 5-lug, 4-nub wheels on their trucks. The main difference being the design of the center portion. If you look at where the center of the wheel comes in contact with the barrel you can see that one wheel sits below the edge of the barrel and the other sits slightly above. Also, the face of the center of the wheel is concaved (curves inward) on one and the other is covexed (curves outward). My four wheels happen to curve outward. Here are a couple pics that show the different styles of wheels. The first one has a face that curves out like mine and the second pic shows a wheel with a face that curves inward. |

Re: WTB: 15x6 5-Lug Steelie
I have several of these 5 lug wheels. I will try and remember to see what I have at the shop to see if I have the right style

Re: WTB: 15x6 5-Lug Steelie
I might have one. I will need to look at what style it is. I might be in Conroe this weekend too.
I will get over to my shop tomorrow to look at what I have.

Re: WTB: 15x6 5-Lug Steelie
I looked, but the one I have is a 5.5" rim. I think I have used all my 6" versions for my '65.

Re: WTB: 15x6 5-Lug Steelie
Thanks for checking. Could you post some pics that show the condition of the wheels? Any curb rash etc? I'd need to know the cost with shipping to zip 80220.

Re: WTB: 15x6 5-Lug Steelie
I did take some pictures and will post them up tomorrow. Shipping shouldn't be too bad in the greater scheme of things(it is super high on anything) but at least I am close being in Phoenix.

Re: WTB: 15x6 5-Lug Steelie
Here you go. There are 2 different wheels. The one is shadowed. I can take a different picture but they're basically in the same condition.

Re: WTB: 15x6 5-Lug Steelie
Thanks for the pics. Tough to be sure from the images but I think the first wheel you posted two pics of is the style I'm looking for. The other is different. The wheel in the first two pics looks to have what I'll call a smooth downward curve where the center goes toward the wheel barrel. The wheel in the last pic appears to have a "dip" in that area (see images below). If that's the case, I'm only interested in the first two pics since it matches my wheels.
Just to be sure it's a 15x6 wheel with no bends or structural damage correct? What would the cost be on that wheel? Thanks Here are the pics that explain the differences I was talking about. |

Re: WTB: 15x6 5-Lug Steelie
Neither of them have that dip you describe.

Re: WTB: 15x6 5-Lug Steelie
Okay. Thanks for confirming. How much for the wheel in the first two pics? The one without the extra small hole in the bolt circle area?

You’re looking for the type that curve outward?
