Where can I get wheels like the ones on the burb in this auction?? What are they commonly called so I can check e-bay from time to time?

Those are the Rally rims, or "Chevy Deep Dish" those rims are 8" wide and 15" tall and are only for 1/2 ton 6 lug 4x4's. Are you considering for your burb? I noticed K20 not K10.

i noticed that too unless you have a half ton your out of luck,but if you do any of the old burbs and blazers used those wheels,if you had a 2wd i have 2 sets i'd sell ya.

yea, for eight lug -- H2 takeoff's would be the ticket. Just ditch the funky looking cap.

BTW -- I think your chromes look better than the 1/2 ton stock wheels anyway. You have a good looking ride.

I had considered H2 315-75r17 bfg's and wheels, before I swapped transmissions. The only issue is that the fender wells need trimming to fit 35's (I'm not willing to lift anything the weight of a 3/4 ton sub.) 17" rim tires are cheaper than 16" for some silly reason... Don't know why.

Let me know what you do. I need to either go to taller tires or change gear ratio's, my rpm's are still too high.... for the speed I drive.

Ok, thanks guys. I do indeed have a k20. I was unaware those wheels where unavailable for all models but the 1/2 ton. Too bad, I like the old wheels. The wheels I have on it are ok, I just wanted to take it retro.

Say, Catmandoo, about those wheels....I'd like a set of the 15x8s for my van....with shipping from Iowa (I live in Nor Cal), it'd probably be more than I'd want to spend, but just out of curiosity - how much for a set?

Thanks!
