2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission 2003 wheels

Does anybody know if the 2003 wheels will fit the older trucks, say 94 to present? I kind of like the look of the 17 inch wheels and there are alot floating around out there.



Thanks,

Ted

Hey Ted, I saw a 2nd gen truck with the 03 wheels on it a couple of weeks ago. It was setting in a driveway that I passed. It was a black sport. Looked pretty good. Jeff

the full floating hubs stick out farther on the 3rd generation therefore the center cap or hubcap will not stay on.



I purchased an aluminum shim to space the rear wheels out a quarter inch and then they worked fine.



the center caps for the old wheels will work with no spacer but they look kinda funny



so go to a 4 wheel drive shop and purchase a couple of aluminum shims and have fun with the new rims.
